Entrepreneur Seth Godin: “Social media wasn’t invented to make you better, it was invented for you to make the company money. By it you become an employee of the company. You are the product they sell. And they put you in a little hamster wheel and throw treats in now and then. . . . The big companies of social media went from being profoundly important and useful public goods that created enormous value, to becoming public companies under pressure to make the stock price go up.”
