THINK Facebook grew too much too soon.

THINK Zuck belongs in jail.

THINK So Congress will regulate Facebook to protect us from that “threat,” but won’t do a thing about guns which is actually a public safety issue.

THINK You people are scary! FB will fall in line when their users yank their chain. The government can't regulate everything and they're poor regulators at things they do. What happened to individual responsibility. Are you all 3 years old - Do you need your Mommy?

THINK If you're using the internet right now, your data is not safe. If you've ever ordered online, your data is not safe. Purchase VPN system AND encryption keys. Only real 'protection'

THINK More proof companies cannot be trusted to self regulate

THINK .Facebook and Twitter have earned to need to be regulated. When greed drives democracy, America loses.

THINK Facebook is garbage.

THINK SOUNDS FAMILIAR?
