Hi...

I agree in part with your opinions, but there is certainly a damage in the sale of personal ...

I partly agree with you.
No one has sold or exposed any personal data. The facebook & cambridge issue is regarding AGGREGATE (not individual) data sale.
Facebook , as such is a totally open application, That is I can access anyone's information once i am a member. Unlike say Whatsapp, where only the group members data/info can be accessed.
Moreover, once we advertise our likes, dislikes, preferences on facebook, they can be known to all members who are interested in knowing them.
NO INDIVIDUAL HAS SUFFERED FROM FACEBOOK/ CAMBRIDGE data leak, not any individual has complained.
The issue needs to be understood fully by all by discussion, I do not claim that I know all its angles. It is a complex issue where technology, privacy, freedom of expression, business practices, advertising and marketing rules etc etc are involved.
But I still maintain that as an individual, there is no ground for complaining, as I am in my free will sharing my opinions for the free benefits I get from facebook/ whatsapp etc.

(OUTSIDE THIS ISSUE, I AM NOT ABLE TO POST ANY THREAD IN READING ROOM , WHY? TILL TODAY MORNING I WAS DOING FINE. SUDDENLY I AM BARRED FROM UPLOADING ANY BOOK. STRANGE! )

Its been a matter of concern that some firms are selling thr privacy of users and facebook had not taken the measures to prevent this from happening and now Mark Zuckerberg the founder and CEO of Facebook is facing hearing at the congress. Its a matter of concern for all of us and for all the network sites.

The easiest thing to do is don't post anything and everything. selfies and locations, holiday plans and personal (especially kids pics) photos are a no-no. Who is interested in this anyway.

We need regulation on social networks ( not self regulation ), to bring some sanity and security to these platforms

I think most people use facebook as a status update.  I have friends who use facebook to tell me that they are travelling by car to Airport
and they post pictures which could be a security risk to them unknowingly on Fb. Unscruplous elements use these innocuous posts to figure people out and target them. Intelligent analysis of fb users interest is acceptable but not to the extent that security and right to privacy is compromised.

My two penny thoughts
