The end of the era of selfishness?
So Facebook is worth 100 billion dollars... its value comes from its users data ... yet the users are rewarded by Facebook sharing %0 of their wealth with them... or "watch us get rich while you play farmville"... So the content and data that gives Facebook its value comes from the users... Facebook gets rich... while users... get... a timeline? tite? 0_o
Pinterest is worth 1 billion dollars... yet again its value comes from the time and energy its users expend to pin stuff and they are not paid for their work... and that stuff is content created by other people who are NOT compensated either... but Pinterest is gettin paid... tight? 0_o
This can't last can it? Won't people see things like this and realize that they are being FARMED for their data and time? And won't a time come when people go FUCK THIS?! And no longer use such sites and services if they are NOT allowed to be in on the profits?
I mean Google allows people to be in on the profits with Adsense which is c00... I make $0.02 a day off this blog because my niche is so tiny BUT at least they give me a chance! At least there IS an open door... Where is the open door with Facebook? Where is the open door with Pinterest?
I suspect in 5-10 years time SELFISH companies like the current incarnation of Facebook and Pinterest will fall because they will not share the wealth with the users who give them their value...ONCE the users wake up to it...
The scam has got to end some time... just to get a rough idea check this out if your constantly visiting a site and spending your time there... contributing/participating.. and the site has ad's ....that gives you a rough idea about how much money they could be making... if its a lot where's your share?
So check it out...if your spending time adding to the value of a site that is MAKING MONEY off of you and they are not sharing it with you and you don't like that... then STOP USING IT!
I have a hunch that any artist who is not sharing the wealth with their fans in 5-10 years will also fail... the age of advertising is dead... word of mouth is the new power... word of mouth is moneY... are you being paid?
If I'm talking all this shit and not sharing I must have a way to share my profits with you in the future eh since I haven't done it yet? I'm going to launch my idea of how things should go when I release my new film Heart String Marionette on June 15th ^_^
So yeh selfishness has made the world the FUCKED UP place full of inequality and greed it is today... its time we get on a new trip and try to make EVERYBODY happy or at least give them a chance...at least open the door so we can all get a piece if we want too ^_^Brought to you by professional weirdo M dot Strange.
