    People talk about the hacking apocalypse, that is the tip of the iceberg right there and proof that everything said on these social media is stored permenantly.
    It is surveillance.
    I knew that was what they were up to when MySpace, Flicker, a whole plethora of social media sprang up in or around 2001.
    At the same time all the previous advice you would see repeated by the media every time the internet was mentioned which was "Do not use personally identifiable information online" suddenly vanished and everyone was encouraged to display everything about themselves with their real name to the entire world.
    Then Google got on the bandwagon, bought YouTube and went all out to force users to use their real identities instead of the alias usernames they were used to and continued to do with the Google Android phones. Then of course came Face Book.
    Make no mistake about it, this was all part of an insideous plan for the new millenium, new world order, total surveillance, total control.
    The point is, who has or can gain access to all this very personal data and who will in the future have it used against them.
    As mentioned in the article, European data protection laws mean everyone in Europe has the right to see the data held about them, which is how she gained access to her 800 pages from Tinder.
    Combine that with identity theft.
