Angst
Rambling and inconsistent
Facebook is peeing its pants over this, and Wall Street are watching. Large US data companies are prissy about it, and I've received a couple of mails saying I won't receive spam from them anymore.
I'm yay for this.
What are you?
Will it change anything?
Is it too technical for you to understand? It is for me. So my yay is kind of hollow. There are a few attempts to summarize it outside layman's terms...

This is not a RD thread because I like the jokes, but you're welcome to try and explain to me what this is about and why it's potentially a horrible idea.
I like having Facebook but I try to turn a blind eye to its handling of my data for professional reasons. I'm dependant upon it for professional contacts and communication.
I'd prefer paying $5 a month for something that doesn't sell everything about me to corporations I don't know. But I'm not a teen (which social networks try to grab in order to keep them later in life.)
