I think it probably was set up for me by Facebook using my Classmates account I <i>did</i> create sometime in 1999. I have put literally nothing in it. I have gently suggested to my family to not include anything about me on their own pages, but that hasn't really worked.Yancey Wardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16427042729449397357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-66228709466337689612019-08-28T11:02:01.965-05:002019-08-28T11:02:01.965-05:00Well you already pay for driving on public roads t...Well you already pay for driving on public roads through your taxes. If the government is using that data you speak of to generate income then I would call that a hidden charge.<br /><br />Personally, I’m not comfortable with the government surveilling its citizens either, regardless of whether or not they make money off that info.

(1/40th of # users = 2.5%)<br /><br />But only 6 million of those businesses pay to be ‘active advertisers’. (1/400 = .25% of users)<br /><br />Although 75% of brands will pay to promote posts.
