Your data

belong to you. Feel free to give them away to whomever you like but don’t be surprised if it backfires.

With every new day and new news about Facebook I’m happy I’m not “in”. If you just google for my name you can get a lot of information. And
I know this will stay forever. Yes I’m unimportant and nobody but maybe one or two cares. That’s fine with me. But I write what I think and “reveal” what
I want and what I decide.

With Facebook I know all my data are in access to Facebook, who am I to know to whom they give access even if I would not agree?
I simply do not know. Facebook needs desperately new sources of income. There stocks still are hell of expensive, and they must earn much more to get
just near somewhat rational regions. So If they’d earn 10 billions one might things that 90 billions are “fair” priced, But
So what else but your data should drive it’s profits.

If you feel Facebook offers something to you then fine use it, but I for my part have decided that I want mine to stay mine. I do not want even more advertisements in my
mail box, nor do I like to get stuffed with it every day, every click. In Germany the biggest advisor for debt handling Schufa have announced to start collecting user information
on facebook for their credit rankings. How would you like that? I can just say, I’m not amused.

And within 5 years I’m sure you state agencies will put pressure on Facebook to get hands on our data. Of course all for the greater goog of the american state. And they will tell, those who do not have anything to hide can simply disclose that information. Well I guess they will do it even more “subtle”. I bet Facebook will find a way to provide them with your data. Backdoors, hacker attacks, viruses, trojan horse, I don’t doubt it a second that NSA should be able to crack accounts in the hundreds of thousands if they are inclined and told to do so. Your data? Not if you give them away that freely…..

“Political” solutions

Now in Germany we’re speaking of the “summertime hole”. That’s saying the politics stops during the holiday season.
This time it was world championship season also. And so before going to their not-deserved holiday, they just “solve” something
the usual political way. And they make a law, which they said they won’t do. And they just will take away more money for keeping their
unsustainable “healt-care system” going.

The US will learn the hard way that Obamacare is pandora’s box. And this will proof to be wrong even in the literal sense. As you might know while opening that box
disease sprang into life, it’s unbelievable how true this has proved in our “health-care-systems”. Just see nearly everyone is “ill” in some way and the disease industry is always hard working (with success) to claim that even more are “ill” and need “therapy”. And this more of course has to be paid for.

In Germany the irony is that the people who stick in the “lawfull health funds”, do never see the costs associated with visitis to the doctor. Now you can imagine how
this is treated. Nothing could be too expensive (in theory).

Our system is regulated in such bizarre ways that Orwell would have used it as model for this 1984 book (if he had just known it).

Anyway it fits the usual political way. “If there is a trouble spot, the answer always has to be mo’ politics.”

And so there are figures for everything. You are allowed to “use up” 5 Minutes for talking to the patien, another minute to do that, 30 seconds for that, you got it.

It’s burocrats land of plenty.
