Bye Bye Facebook Anniversary!
01/12/2021
It has been over a year since we have removed our Facebook presence and we are still thankful to have done so. Privacy concerns about how our data was handled as well as concerns about supporting an organization actively involved in censorship were the initial reasons for leaving the platform. These concerns have been vindicated over time as these activities appear to have only gotten worse.
Another ancillary benefit to leaving was the improvement in productivity experienced as a result of not endlessly scrolling. Screen time is already too high for most people so peeling yourself away permanently can only be a good thing.
We would encourage you to do the same if you feel yourself wasting a lot of time. This valuable resource could be used to develop a talent, call a loved one, or just sit and meditate.
In the new year you may find that this simple change helps you break free from the clutches of platforms that are designed to steal your time, manipulate your feelings, and sell your data. Remember if you don't have to pay for it, then consider that you may be the product.
Cheers!
