Saw some right wingers whining about Facebook "censoring" the Kyle Rittenhouse fundraiser

I won't link but it's easy to find if you're a glutton for punishment like me.

Good for Facebook, but swearing off Facebook is not narrowly a political issue.

I (with a background in computer security stretching back to the last century) took one look when it first came out and said "no way". I know it's convenient and all that, but the security exposure should be enough to keep you away.

There are other high tech ways of staying in touch or trading photos etc that don't rely on subjecting yourself to pervasive spyware that follows you around the web.
