    About META
    imagine if a secret agent or a facebook employee sitting in your livingroom but you cant see him because META dont let you see them. But he is there. Right next to you. Imagine if a person watching every step you take in your VR "home" in person real time and thats his daily job. Not a bot or AI. A specific person

This pandemic and shutting down the economy is the 3rd industrial revolution we are already in but not finished and it's the digital era. Digital money, NFT digital art. The smartphone inception in 2012 ruined most of humanities attention span, everyone always looking down at their phone every 3 minutes, everyone at the restaurant not socializing but on there phone and especially kids not even 5 yet with phones in their hands. Mark Zuckerberg already knew we were heading in this direction.

I did feel creeped out while watching MZ's meta presentation because I just couldn't shake the cognitive dissonance of a visibly aging "adult" (or an android as many likened him to) trying to peddle a childishly gameified "minority report"-esque user interface. Right, adults are just dying to have this VR world, because it is... what, cool? I don't know, it is just all completely weird.

    This is part of the problem. We all know how bad social media is and where it's leading us, but few people are willing to take their own responsibility to disconnect from it, whilst naively expecting these global corporations to look after our interests themselves. They are not a business providing us a product as their clients. Their clients are the ad companies. WE are the product.
