The Facebook-Meta Mafia Move
I joined FB in November of 2009, following the recording of Carry Me Home with Shaidri Alrich.Now in April of 2022, thirteen years later, during which time I have attracted plenty of friends, all over the world, and have never been hacked on FB, Meta has decided that my account must be at risk. The company threatened to lock me out of my account, and they have done so.This is exactly how the Mafia operates a protection racket. If you don't hire their protection, they'll break your windows, or worse.In this case, not buying into "the system" by withholding data for which they lust results in Facebook essentially stealing my account.Meanwhile, the Meta-Facebook operation is substantially corrupt and without morals. Meta refuses to deploy its powerful digital tools to prevent rampant dissemination of dangerous political, social, and scientific information. The company has the tools, and it has the fiscal resources to be a marvelous citizen, just like any brilliant Mafioso could have decided not to hire contract killers, but to work productively outside of crime.I am locked out of Facebook. I will post here daily whenever possible. I am now locked into this. As with most power mongers, their system is too dull to miss me.I created "content" for their machine. I am now content to do so no longer.
