This is awful! I am fed up of being controlled and told what to think by the establishment in their clandestine and secretive ways. Thank god for posts like this and the thousands of similar ones I receive on social media highlighting this. We are blessed that a few thousand/million people are able to see through the smokescreen and inform everyone else. The important thing to remember is they aren't telling you what to think, its more they're priming how you think towards a favourable bias. You can't make people vote for Trump, but you can affect the reasons why they might not vote for someone else, or focus on making Trump appeal more to you. Its basically how Advertising and Marketing operate. Target demographics, and influence their perception - Its all about how the mind works by relationship rather than refentially and cognative bias.

All it needed was a few references to Opus Dei and the Illuminati and they'd have hit a home run of rampant and uncontrolled paranoia. If stupid people weren't so eager to bare their all on Facebook, Twitter etc, this wouldn't be an issue. Social media sites are free to use for a reason - they want your data. They only know as much as you tell them so if you must use these sites, at least use them anonymously.

Arguably allowing groups access to data, to specifically target relevant individuals isn't necessarily a bad thing. Its how you exploit it that is the problem. For example, I quite like seeing targeted ads for products that I'm actually interested in - This arguably is good for niche companies as they can target their audience more efficiently. Manipulating how people vote is a bit questionable - but how is that any different than a party political broadcast or election campaign - except for being more tailored.

Manipulating how people vote is a bit questionable - but how is that any different than a party political broadcast or election campaign - except for being more tailored. As a rule, I try to leave as small a footprint as I can on t'interweb. I'm not on Facebook, I use an alias on Twitter (and even then, I only use it to read stuff rather than contribute), I have a LinkedIn profile which gives minimal personal (as opposed to professional) info and I certainly don't use things like Snapchat, instagram or any other nonsense which serves no purpose other than to give a platform to emotionally insecure dummkopfs who desperately crave their existence to be acknowledged and to be 'liked'. Data (or Big Data) as some now call it, is supposedly the 'thing' of the future which is hardly surprising as so many seem so anxious to tell the world about themselves, be it through social media or some pointless, narcissistic blog. If people are so glib about surrendering information about themselves and their habits to advertisers, political flim-flam artists and the like, it's pretty pointless complaining about how these data harvesters know so much about them. You f*cking told them yourselves, you c*ntwits. You, Jamie, will certainly be aware of the old maxim 'garbage in, garbage out' - any system is only as good as what it's been told. The less you tell it, the less it knows. You know the'risks' of receiving targeted adverts - that's cool. Me, I don't want to 'enjoy' any 'personalised user experience' unless I specifically ask for it. Amazon gives me recommendations based on my previous shopping habits. I find that useful but I don't believe Amazon will flog that information to anyone else (they'd be daft to let a competitor have it anyway). Bottom line is, don't post anything on the internet that publicly identifies you or anything personal about you. If you do, don't get upset that 'your privacy has been infringed' and that you've become just one more item in a gigantic dataset.

Of course I also deliberately include false, absurd and outrageously untrue information about myself online as well - Because after all, I'm not getting paid. Privacy is overated, I'd happily let Facebook watch me take a s**t.

Many likes I'd expect. And targetted ads from Andrex....
