When Senators start to care about Snapchat...Stay on Facebook Bro!!

 This is my second post of today and this one is going to be more informal than normal. This is one of those things where an politician makes a claim that social media is ruining our youth. It is giving me the same vibes of you telling your mom your hungry and she say's you wouldn't if you weren't on your phone all day. LOL.  Onto the meat and potatoes... The senators are claiming that these sites are taking advantage of young people by showing them things from eating disorders to sexually explicit content and abusive drugs. From this the one these senators want is legislation that hinges down the protection of children on these apps.  Claim #1: Big Tech preys on children and teens to make more money. Then they bring up our best friend Facebook and talk about how Instagram is harming teens. Saying the main focus on Instagram is to get the attention of young people, the same goes for places like TikTok and Snapchat. The Senator at the lead of this even went to question the...

My Intro/Apology: I know its been a while sense I last posted something and that is because I got a little lazy, but its fine because I got a double dose for you guys. The interesting this is that I log onto my computer and put in a random news website that popped in my head and Facebook is the top headline, published 8 minutes ago. Both Facebook and the January 6th riots are paying my bills when it comes to getting this done, they always have something going on.  Now Back to the Information: So I know you guys remember about a year ago when the vaccine began to come out and their was a group of people wanted them, hated them, and didn't care. Along with the hateful people came a bunch of their own misconceptions about the newly acquired vaccine. To combat this Facebook literally pushed this kind of information further down peoples feed. One group stated that the reason they didn't do what was mentioned above was they are all about "HUMAN ENGAGEMENT + EYEBALLS = Ad REVENUE...

 For the longest QAnon was something I would always hear about but never understood, and it was something that was very prevalent during President Trumps tenure in office. To preface my definition, I want to say who it is, is a conspiracy within itself because no one truly knows. The definition that holds the most weight in my eyes is the one that, it is a person who was in the white house (between 2016-2020) who had "Q" level clearance and would go on 8chan and give out tidbits of information to followers that dealt with politics. Although it wouldn't be straight forward, it gave numbers and pieces of information every so often. Needless to say that it the most supporters between the years of 2016-2020. ***Here is an example so you aren't left to you imagination*** Now that I have given you a full overview, I want to tell you guys some of the supporters of them were also there during the capital riots of January 6th. Below is a man with "Q" on his shirt whi...

                                               * Keep this definition in mind while reading this blog. Once again in the past week, Facebook has shut down the world over some new and never before seen allegations, so we think. Apparently, they put children in harms way and breaking down democracies piece by piece and all of this is coming from a 'whistleblower', which means it has yet to be proven true. This could be some old employee who wants to get back at the company, or he could be telling the truth, lets see what the facts say. Just to put things into perspective he is testifying and saying all of this in front of the UNITED STATES CONGRESS. ***The important claims in the article*** *There was not enough people working to keep the platforms safe. I find this surprising because this a billion dollar company. *The safety setting were turne...
