I agree Viper. There are also sites that are like languish that are hosted by large companies.

For me, the interesting conundrum with the survey was how to answer truthfully. For a lot of the questions, I instinctively wanted to say "yeah, I care about that". But really, would I change my social media use? Probably not.
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

There's a fine line between salvation and drinking poison in the jungle.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

not reaylly.

Would you still participate if Languish had tracking ads?  If Languish collected info on wich subject you are interested (what you read on the forum) and sell it to advertisers so they can target you?

That is the kind of questions this survey intends to answer.

Fair enough.

Yeah, same. I guess I sorta assume that everyone is collecting everything I ever say online so, absent anonymity of Languish, I factor it into what I post.

I answered, but I lied on some stuff because I can be an asshole sometimes.

It's ok. He lied when he said there were 7 questions.  :P

Done.  Also, being American, there's no such thing as a "privacy-guaranteed" social network anymore.  That stuff went out the window with the FISA court's integrity.

I understand your point of view, but I would say that questions 5 and 6 remain valid for people who don't use social media because those people might not be using social media because of one or more of the criteria listed are not met.

Kevin :)

Even though I use very little social media I thought questions 5 and 6 were fine.   I still had a view of what I would like to see from social media if I did use it more.
