Possibly there are some things that money can’t buy, politics can’t win, and corporations can’t control.
Maybe there is a world beyond a business environment that thinks of people as a commodity.
As adjams said – “I’d like to see any business model that holds up with nobody using it!”
What if people were no longer thought of as commodities but instead as assets. That’s the way it was taught to me in Biz 101. Seems to be the only way it really sustains a society as well, unless its a ‘red light district’ kinda place.
Lesson – Businesses are created by people, maintained by people (employees), to serve people (customers). There’s nothing wrong with what facebook is doing it’s the individuals responsibility, business and otherwise, to remember that people aren’t commodities, just like any other privelege we have in a democratic society.
Replace Facebook with Google and it’d be about right.
There’s no way on earth I’m getting on Google+. I don’t need to give them yet another way to track me.
You can add television to that. Even for you guys who pay for it.
Well if thats how facebook feels about their users I’d like to see their business model hold up if no one was using it.

I’d like to see any business model that holds up with nobody using it!

There is. But its not facebook.
The user is the content.
Content is king.
If anything FB should pay users for keeping them afloat.
The day the better FB comes out and people leave the party is the day it is all over….
That day might be soon with that google plus thing.

“They” are already tracking you.
