Facebook has employees. With families. And bills.

Do we no longer care about the American worker or do we only care if they live in red states?

Red meaning communist .

People’s Republic of California .

Might of missed it but have there been any layoffs at Facebook ?

Any Facebook workers getting foreclosed in due to this event ?

Unfortunately this is how Wall Street works . It’s one reason why many don’t like investing in Wall Street , and prefer real estate for example where you have more control .

It’s the nature of stocks / Wall Street .
Like you said anybody that bought long term is still ok .
If you bought at even $100 would still be up 70 percent.

But this is why a lot of people don’t like investing in stocks , it can be a roller coaster .
Exciting when it’s going up but it’s a bit of a gamble .

Moral of story - make sure you know how something operates before you use it. OR - make sure your settings are set to only friends, no sharing and that you only friend folks you really want to share with.

And then go ahead and share your Hawaii pics and let your FB friends enjoy your adventure....knowing safety that they aren't going to break into your house/
Yeah how many people have 1000 plus people on their FB / social media accounts as “friends “ that they don’t really know?

Can you really trust every single person on your Facebook account 100% like you would your close relatives or best friend ?

Most people don't allow rare occurrences run their lives.

This morning I checked my ad status again and again my info was shared with unknown people and I had to “hide” another 40 companies/people from Allstate to unknown politicians and companies that I never heard off.

Disgusting to see that Facebook didn’t seem to change anything. Fake promises by Zuckerberg to Congress and we the people!
If you're not using Facebook much and you do not approve of the way the company uses your data, then delete your account and help starve the beast. Here's a link that describes how to do it.

How do I permanently delete my account?
