personal information to third parties

getting a lot more email and trust me my
penis needs no enlargement the reality
behind this myth can be found right on
my facebook site itself which states in
plain English that the site doesn’t sell
information to third parties and never
will
Facebook encourages their users to
tailor each profiles privacy settings to
suit their own personal needs ensuring
that the users don’t share anything they
don’t intend to with their followers
though public pages are a different
story
status update ah
[Applause]
for example it’s not uncommon for pages
to advertise to a user which of their
friends also likes our artisanal
products while Facebook’s legal Tim’s
also state that it’s okay so the site to
utilize they users posts so their own
advertising so just be mindful of what

but I just Facebook myth number four
Shawn Parker discovered the site after a
one-night stand the 2010 movie The
Social Network was highly successful in
its dramatization of the Facebook
origins kappa sir Chuck Facebook the
screenplay from Aaron Sorkin implies at
the former Facebook president Shawn
Parker actually discovered the site
after a one-night Sun what’s that
okay but Katherine had her two weeks now
a Vanity Fair profile on Parker quoted
the Napster co-founder on how he was
actually made aware of Facebook which
was actually on the computer of a
Stanford student the girlfriend of
Parker’s former roommate it wasn’t long
afterwards that the web entrepreneur and
former hacker would join Facebook
founder Mark Zuckerberg in becoming two
of the most important figures in the
social media revolution and then you say
Shawn Parker says you
okay myth number three Facebook is
declining in popularity every now and
then a new story or social media study
may come along claiming that Facebook is
declining in popularity
there’s rumors in the Twittersphere
according to eMarketer calm however over
60% of Internet users accessed a social
media site in 2016 with the data also
securing facebook status as a social
media giant okay
how come you ignored my friend request I
don’t know you
yeah well I’m just a guy that gets
ignored I guess the science research
state is that many young people were
adopting cycling Instagram snapchat and
Twitter in addition to Facebook as
opposed to replacing it in their daily
routine when you send a wolf it goes to
your home phone cell phone email
Facebook Twitter and home screen at the
same time eMarketer also published a
piece showing the over a billion people
access facebook on their phones during
the year a statistic which was up 21%
from 2015 and going on Facebook slap
myth number two
Mark Zuckerberg Facemash and the social
network the aforementioned films the
social network opens with a disgruntled
Mark Zuckerberg after being recently
dumped grazing a makeshift website
titled Facemash whereupon students at
Harvard can compare the hotness of
female students Billy Olsen sitting here
and had the idea of putting some of the
pictures next to pictures of farm
animals and have people vote on from
Kotter
this leads to a crushed Harvard web
network and the beginnings of Facebook
as an international social media giant
reality was a bit different from Fincher
and silken film however as not only did
Facemash use both female and male
student profiles for the site traffic
actually only slowed down
Zuckerberg personal computer the notice
unless it’s a coincidence I think this
is not it’s not cause he did in fact
only shut down Facemash of his own
volition following criticisms of
copyright and privacy Mark Zuckerberg is
myth number one Facebook owns what you
post User Agreement pages a next lie so
you mean you might have noticed a number
of strangely worded vaguely legal
sounding jug and when perusing your
daily Facebook feed usually these are
found in the form of status update and
contains phrases which usually say
something about denying permission for
Facebook to use their photos information
for posts you have requested to delete
your Facebook profile if this is an
error hit cancel Percy delete your
profile are you sure yes no yes are you
totally sure yes I’m afraid I can’t let
you do that star marks
it’s a tricky subject but one thing is
soon Facebook and their tens of service
have never claimed that any of their
users posts are owned by the site but
instead state that anyone finding up for
Facebook is giving the site permission
to use that data oh thank god any
content posted by Facebook users remains
their property but any question with
regards to its use should either be
pursued with a legitimate lawyer or
simply by deactivating your profile
goddamn in my facebook profile I’ve
taken on a life of its own where is it
your profile is one of the most powerful
in all of Facebook you cannot stop it
