But these aren't important right now.
The Problem with Facebook is that it allows my 'friends' to publish pictures of a younger, more innocent timmy, solely for the entertainment of others.
Where do I start? Online privacy is almost too big a subject to tackle in one post. Child safety needs a chapter in its own right. The deliberate obfuscation of settings, coupled with a frightening level of churn in the configuration interface - designed, undoubtedly, to confuse many into exposing their online persona to the wider world - is an affront to the freedom of the individual to maintain instinctive control of their privacy. The dominance of the platform drives homogenisation of the market - in everything - reduces marketing to a quest for mass commonality in desire and, ultimately, commits us to a beige world of limited choice. But these aren't important right now. The Problem with Facebook is that it allows my 'friends' to publish pictures of a younger, more innocent timmy, solely for the entertainment of others. My name is Tim. And I like the Jesus and Mary Chain, Orange Juice, Aztec Camera and The Smiths.

Tim, My lovely husband David put these photos in front of me. I really thought about it for at least 5 seconds before posting them. I think you look so cool in 1984 and I just wanted to share it with your friends and family. I never wanted to hurt your feelings or send you in to a rant...Love you always Janet xxxxx

Hah! As if I care - it's not as if I was a soulboy and you'd published pictures of me with a wedgy haircut in Pringle sweater and Farahs... Comments are closed.
