Just the LATEST data breach at FB, yesterday's news 3.8 BILLION phone #s leaked. For sale on the dark web for a very reasonable $100,000:scrutiny:. Didn't hear of it ? I'm sure it went through the normal news avenues:scrutiny:...

So there is more they do then just exclude a BB gun I mean, how can they be be developing software excluding BB guns when busy patching holes in their security nets (not)?

Your right even if you don’t have fb, big brother is watching. The fact that we visit this great website called The High Road, we are on a list. I don’t have a good answer for you. Except is very easy to not have fb for me. It’s not easy to say, I don’t watch youtube. Especially when looking at gun videos.

Breach means "sold" and forever compromised. Sadly most American's have been trained since birth to always tell the truth and freely provide accurate information when asked. This is being totally weaponized against us. Even running your name on sites like "mylife" can be a detriment to your personal security. Also a wake up call when you see everything about you, your family, finances, what you have bought or sold, your favorite foods and (of course) any wrongdoings. Providing your name. birthdays, relatives names or any real info may be used against you. Prolly too late for most but time to think BEFORE you post anything. In intell school the value of dis-information was heavily stressed. Even accusations of "paranoia" may be used against you.
 
Jeeze, all this makes me reluctant to even look up the "P i s t o l N e b u l a."

I do not think its safe to even post a pic of a gun or even a shape resembling a firearm anymore. We recently had a garage sale and posted a pic of the stuff we had on Facebook Marketplace. Within seconds they took down our post. In the pic was an old, incomplete BB gun and a empty rifle stock hanging on garage wall. When i protested they basically admitted such items trigger a "shape" detection program and that such items violated their rules. I don't care about the pic, its that they probably "flagged" us permanently. Downright scary.

My better half uses Fakebook more than I do. I can’t stand it. They are criminal, in my opinion....nuff said.

The really BIG difference is those were government sponsored agents. Facebook may suck the brains out of people who use it so much they forget how to read books, but they are not a government. They do not have force of law.

It has come out recently that Facebook has been censoring people and topics at the direction of the White House. That brings them squarely into conflict with the First Amendment.

“I’ll just go to another social media company.” Which the CEOs of Facebook, Amazon, and Google can shut down tomorrow if they so choose (as they did with Parler, until they were satisfied they had pulled the rug out from under it).

Also, keep in mind the broader picture that authoritarian zealots see globalist corporations as a key part of the enforcement mechanism against dissidents and nonconformists. If all your means of at-a-distance communication are censored, all your bank transactions are subject to veto by your progressive overseers, etc., and all alternative corporations have been shut down, you are very effectively boxed in and silenced even if none of the enforcers are wearing a badge.

Can you clarify what you meant was no big deal?

Can't people see the parallels between firearms censoring and book burning?

Post something that the Moderators feel is inappropriate here and see what happens. It can be something deemed very appropriate on some other forum, or even to the general public, but yet the post will be deleted and you will be reprimanded. As I said in my first post to this thread. Their house, their rules. You walk in, you abide by them. Don't want to abide, don't come in. Facebook and THR are privately owned and do not parallel the government.
 
if you think FB is bad, open Photos on your iphone, click the search button, and search for "firearm". note, "gun" is not recognized. That's done by the processor on your phone, not up in the cloud.

so if you think you're under the radar because you don't post pics of your guns online, and only keep them on your phone, i have some bad news for you
 
Not just FB. Got local phone book today - yes they still make phone books. The listing for guns, gunsmithing and gunshops are totally absent. Called friend/owner of nearby LGS. Said he was not contacted and when he asked to be added he was told his buisness was "inappropriate".

Have to wonder who prints the phone books with so many providers including land lines. When we owned a gun shop early to mid 90s we paid for two business lines and some large print in the phone book. I bet if you look up Massage services or Estcourt services they are in the book. :)

Facebook called the FBI on me last year for some memes and jokes I posted to a gun group.

I consulted a lawyer on that one. His exact phrase was "they cooked up a big nothing-burger."
 
If you think what Facebook is guilty of is "data harvesting," you should really learn more about what actually do.

Netflix currently has a documentary called "The Social Dilemma" which is one of the best things I've watched in a while. Social media is evil. It wasn't intended to be, and didn't start out that way, but it certainly turned out that way.

Watch the documentary! The industry insider interviews explain how it all works and what the consequences are and might be.
 
Glad I've never had any Facebook account or contact with them. Web sites like this are about the extent of my social media world. But even then "big brother" knows a lot about me and what I do just from my being on the internet.
 
The trouble is, that even your friends that are on social media talk about you and your actions/activities with others. In other posts the ID you/ your location etc. Seems one can't be totally anonymous in this highly information gathering world.

ETA I have on several occasions had my device location services turned back on when my S10 does its mandatory update. I always check this first thing after one now and turn it back off.

Makes me wonder if Armslist wasn't founded by the government in order to develop a registry of sorts, or at least a database.

The libertarian argument is all fine and good, "private platform" and all, right up until the "private platform" has become the new public square de facto, and censors your libertarian argument out of existence.
Facebook has moved beyond the realm of the private, and into the realm of the public, imo. They and a few other social media sites have made themselves into the primary means of communication among the citizenry, and should be regulated as such, prohibited from biases and obligated to honer free speech from all sides of the table.

I know the law says all back ground check information is to be destroyed after a certain time period, but knowing the depth and breadth of the corruption in government, I sincerely doubt it. The recent actions of government towards the people in general and firearms owners in particular leads me to believe there is a registry, or registry of sorts, where persons of power and influence can have access.
Yes, you may call me paranoid if you wish. I call it skeptical and untrusting of anything government related, especially where my 2nd amendment rights are concerned.
