Ben, I take issue with your premises.  As my post noted, I HAVE tried FB,
and found it lacking in value.  Further, I do not want my personal
information exploited by an organization lik FB, nor do I want to be
targeted for political ads that I strongly disagree with by an organization
that allowed a foreign power to gain access to it for its own nefarious
purposes.

I do have a legitimate beef with FB, and I have the right to let others
know of my objections to it.

I have been a member of this list since 2008.  If you want to ban me for
disliking FB and saying so, then do, but it would not be right.
