I wanted to call your attention to this story in the Wall Street Journal from several weeks ago. It is behind the paywall, but the long and short of it is that Google, Facebook, and Twitter have all stopped fielding reviews for user data from Hong Kong after China imposed its new security law.
Erick, your perspective in this report is greatly appreciated here. There is so much going on out there with billions of electrons constantly streaming around us.
Your report here is impressively comprehensive in its scope, while providing enough detail to educate us without overwhelming complexity.
I agree with you on this Erick. I have friends that lean left and they hate Facebook cuz they claim Facebook allows to many "hate" posts or "fake" news. Drilling these friends further, I have found that they think "hate" and "fake" is conservative thought and they don't like folks who disagree with them showing up on Facebook. But these same folks NEVER say anything about Twitter. When I ask them about Twitter (I have never been over there), they seem to think Twitter is good cuz they censor conservatives. I have no problems with Facebook but I have seen ads based on something I was just thinking about!
Very well discussed. Interesting comment about the B-M Syndrome. Clark Howard sent out an email yesterday about how to adjust Facebook's ability to see your offline activity. Your criticism about conservative commentary is excellent. I hope more listen.

Keep up the good work.

It's happened to us too...we're talking about something we did NOT search online and all of a sudden it shows up as an online ad.
