Networking and keeping in touch

I certainly wouldn’t get my news from social media populated with people who have their own agenda. I use it to keep up with my friends and family. It’s a valuable resource to find people I may have lost touch with. I tend to keep people in my life as long as I can unless or until they start to share information showing they have become more insular, afraid, promote fear, negativity and seem to believe in many of the myths that are dividing communities and are merely destructive rather than constructive. Breaking bonds instead of building bridges to greater understanding and support of the “other”. Every group has been the “other “ at one time and it’s to everyone’s benefit and advantage to bring newcomers into the fold regardless of gender, gender orientation, color, nationality, religion or any quality that might set them apart. Not everyone has the same advantage of being born into an affluent family or community where everyone is valued equally. No one knows where the next solution to a problem will come from. It might be the least expected source.
I try to live on the side of optimism, finding solutions that benefit the greatest number and building bridges of understanding to unite us in improving lives.

Worst Program Ever

I created a real account to use for selling items on Marketplace such as a microwave, refrigerator, etc. I used my real information and email. I don’t have any other accounts with FB. Once my account was created I requested to join pages from three nearby cities for selling and buying within my area. I noticed 95% of the dozens of pages are controlled by FB and not actual people. I requested to join them. I was accepted in several until around the 4th one and FB locked my account. They stated they wanted me to open my camera settings and stream live video footage to their Admins. NEVER EVER in my life have I been requested/demanded to do anything such as this for any social media account. I use many other Apps and never any trouble.

I highly recommend you never download this App and stay very far away with anything to do with these people. I had heard stories from contractors that worked at their nearby facility near me. They’re really creepy people and our Gov should really dissect this company ASAP; the tracing/tracking their performing is completely illegal.

Good grief, simply trying to sell household goods and purchase some contractor products and they demanded a live stream vid of my face. That is beyond acceptable.

Improvements

I like Facebook as a platform for people to express themselves. The things I’m not a fan of especially are the lack of customer service and realistic resolutions for issues people face on this platform. There are a lot of bots that comment false reviews on products that deceive people in wasting their money. There are a lot of fake counts that put massive amounts of spam on different pages that cause viruses on people phones/computers and hack into your information. Peoples accounts are hacked and are unable to be retrieved, losing massive amounts of memories, pictures, friends and personal information that’s in the hands of who knows and where. The customer service is non existent. You don’t receive any resolution for any issues from actual people, it always results in checking help forums or talking to AI and not getting anything solved in an effective way. I see plenty of people who are flagged or in “Facebook jail” for minuscule reasons but bots and spam are able to continuously post without consequences. I think the way Facebook is run and handled is utterly careless and dismissive. I lost my old account to a hacker, where I lost thousands of pictures I can never get back and profiles of people who are no longer alive as well as messages. I’m highly disappointed with the lack of help I received and how I was treated as an inconvenience with no priority to help me retrieve everything I needed.
