Yes, they want to destroy anonymous commenting on the internet......they hate it when people express how they TRULY feel.

Many of the news sites that carry stories of YUTES going wild...will actually not turn the commenting on for these stories.

Yep, same here. I don't do fb, so any site that requires it falls off my radar.

FB alone is 61% institutional ownership. Same old players. Pretty obvious.

Makes this stuff real easy.
Yahoo Confirms, Apologizes For The Email Hack, Says Still ...
excellent post again CDusr have to wait to rep

You know every time I deactivate fakebook, a few months later intrusive emails keep getting sent...like Joe blow downloaded his kids picture, etc.

Someone I work with who is very familiar with FB behind its agenda said that there are many fake entities on FB now- FAKE profiles created to extract info. created by the alphabet people
seems news sites now are using this method.

Well don't forget that Huf Post is first and foremost a new aggregator, so you skip their briefs and go right to the original source or you read their brief and then Google a more reliable source. That is why it remains on my daily check list.

Not just the one alphabet. Your employer can also get information from reports. Google for instance does this.

The thing is you can almost bet that the depth of what is really occurring isn't what is coming out. Things that go on in the dark can get pretty wild especially where technology is concerned.

Most news website have eliminated anonymous screen names in their comments sections because of the deluge of trolls and angry comments. USA Today also requires a Facebook account to post comments. I think they are trying to avoid exactly the types of troll posts that dominate the City-Data Politics section.

HuffPo has devolved into becoming another radical Left-wingnut cog in the Obamacrat propaganda machine. I'm sure HuffPo's Arianna is included in Obama's periodic closed-door meetings with certain members of the Journolist media.

Forget HuffPo and find a real independent news source if you want to be truly informed.

They have no way of knowing what's fake and what isn't.
