(To get the full flavor of this post, check out  Really? With Seth & Amy SNL).  Really?  You’re concerned about Facebook sharing your crush on Dillon from English class?  Or that rad post about you and your Starbucks order? Really?  Or how about letting the world know just how “into” Justin Bieber you really are?  Really?  It’s just now coming as a surprise to you that EVERYTHING you do on-line is public?  Like forever public?  Yes, when you venture out of your virtual little house, out there in the wide world of the world wide web, you no longer have privacy.  No one promised it to you and no one is going to provide it to you.  How do you think the big meanies at Facebook actually intended on making money while their promise is to forever keep their service free?  Really?  I mean c’mon by now you must know the name of the game – it’s called “mass”.  Once you have mass – millions of users and their associated eyeballs and wallets – you now have something that you can monetize.  Advertisers will pay for access to the mass.  Brands will pay for access to the mass. Really!  Do you know who won’t pay? The government, rapists and murders, terrorists or religious organizations.  All those that you think will be monitoring your every online move, Mr. Conspiracy Theory, won’t pay.  Really?  Really.  Did you ever stop to think about what this big breach of alleged privacy is really designed to do?  Really?  Well, mostly the users of this information are trying to commit that greatest of cardinal sins – they’re trying to sell you something. Yep, those evil minds at Taco Bell are trying to personalize their sites, their messages, their ads to – wait for it – You!  Lucky you!  This way iTunes won’t be pushing heavy metal at you upon every visit, but rather more American Idol-esque knock outs like Kelly Clarkson’s greatest hit.  Really.  Maybe Toyota will push a Lexus ad at your doctor (also a HUGE Facebook fan), a Toyota Camary ad at your mom (you know she’s watching….oh yeah, she’s watching) and to you my little digital era knucklehead, yes, you get a Scion ad. Really.  Now is that all that bad?  Really?  Load up on to the busses and get down to Washington D.C. to give ‘em hell about Facebook, because it’s this kind of distraction that our inept legislature needs right now.  Go.  Go on.  Go. Really!
