The outrage about the Facebook “emotional manipulation” study has me puzzled.
The reality is that Facebook is making these choices every day without oversight, transparency, or informed consent.
Facebook collects all your data, sells it to god knows who, advertises incessantly, already does all the things (and more) the researchers did fucking all the time, and people only get pissed off when it’s for research? What in the hell?
I have so little in common with most people. So very little.
