Jia Tolentino
“But even when Facebook isn't deliberately exploiting its users, it is exploiting its users—its business model requires it. Even if you distance yourself from Facebook, you still live in the world that Facebook is shaping. Facebook, using our native narcissism and our desire to connect with other people, captured our attention and our behavioral data; it used this attention and data to manipulate our behavior, to the point that nearly half of America began relying on Facebook for news. Then, with the media both reliant on Facebook as a way of reaching readers and powerless against the platform's ability to suck up digital advertising revenue—it was like a paperboy who pocketed all the subscription money—Facebook bent the media's economic model to match its own practices: publications needed to capture attention quickly and consistently trigger high emotional responses to be seen at all. The result, in 2016, was an unending stream of Trump stories, both from the mainstream news and from the fringe outlets that were buoyed by Facebook's algorithm. What began as a way for Zuckerberg to harness collegiate misogyny and self-interest has become the fuel for our whole contemporary nightmare, for a world that fundamentally and systematically misrepresents human needs.”
Jia Tolentino, Trick Mirror: Reflections on Self-Delusion

“Believe half of what you see and nothing you read online.”

Mango Wodzak
“Due to reliance on money, people are generally cajoled into working and lead to believe they have no other choice in this matter. Many are manoeuvred into living in monotone stacked boxes of apartment buildings where they return each sat like mindless drones to their tv sets and facebook pages.”
Mango Wodzak, The Eden Fruitarian Guidebook

Suchitra Vijayan
“For me, it comes down to the fundamental question of who owns knowledge, who produces knowledge, who enables other people to produce knowledge. And that’s why it’s important that knowledge should not belong to one person or group, neither should the profits of that knowledge belong to one corporation, whether it’s The Washington Post or The New York Times, and the Amazons and Jeff Bezoses of the world. It’s absolutely important that all of us, whether we are brown or black, have the capacity to produce knowledge and own that knowledge.”
Suchitra Vijayan

Nkwachukwu Ogbuagu
“Facebook is an Ancient and Modern book that reconnects you with ancient friends and connects you with modern ones. People add and minus you as a friend at whim. Some people change their profile pictures everyday as if they’re WANTED by the police. On it, you chat with ur fingers, not with ur mouth. It’s a status-conscious society. It’s a place where, even if you can’t afford a house, you at least have a wall where passersby do graffiti.”
Nkwachukwu Ogbuagu

Soroosh Shahrivar
“A cross with a bent tip that's the Facebook logo
New religion, clouds drip Grapefruit Yoko Ono

A clown wears the crown for years and we celebrate
Rule of law turned upside down, we tolerate

I no longer know, where we headed on this path
Pen my words, just forget it, waiting on the crash

Documenting life, I am Mr Werner Herzog
’72 Aguirre, this is the wrath of God”
Soroosh Shahrivar, Letter 19

Ehsan Sehgal
“I am here on Facebook only for pleasure, happiness, and humor and also posting my writings to all my friends. Please do not take anything seriously and personally from my comments, status and any posts that are based only on humor, I know sometimes my comments and posts go a bit far of the reality, and create the confusion.

Please also keep in mind that I am not always online though my network is on, and sometimes administrators update my FB, even comments, status, and other things.

Please be civilized and gentle at the wall and inbox. I do not reply at inbox except a few ones. I answer only necessary matters that you inbox. If you ask personally, not on the wall or in comments since those are for the public, not private.

Neither I have taken of you seriously anything, nor I will ever do that. I only take serious all matters of my family and friends whom I know personally.
Thanks.

Ehsan Sehgal”

Anna Wiener
“A social network everyone said they hated but no one could stop logging in to went public at a valuation of one-hundred-odd billion dollars, its grinning founder ringing the opening bell over video chat, a death knell for affordable rent in San Francisco.”
Anna Wiener, Uncanny Valley

Anna Wiener
“Two hundred million people signed on to a microblogging platform that helped them feel close to celebrities and other strangers they’d loathe in real life. Artificial intelligence and virtual reality were coming into vogue, again. Self-driving cars were considered inevitable. Everything was moving to mobile. Everything was up in the cloud. The cloud was an unmarked data center in the middle of Texas or Cork or Bavaria, but nobody cared. Everyone trusted it anyway.”
Anna Wiener, Uncanny Valley
