I agree that FB should act ethically, however abstinence negates the concern 100%.

The VCs and firms who provided the seed money for the product have no bearing.
how does a company owned by goldman sachs run ethically?

how do you tell a teenager that everything they know as social media is actually owned by intelligence agencies to 'fight terrorism'?

i like this argument tho, 'you don't have to use it'. We're still avoiding the fact it's actually happening.. but it's closer
