Facebook is not a technology company.  They are a media company.  They make money from eyeballs on advertising no differently than CNN or FoxNews.  Google claims to be a diverse technology company but they make almost all their money, despite their various products and investments, from data micro auctions that populate paid listings and advertising on their search engine.  Amazon is a general retail company.&lt;p&gt;In this vain almost every company in business is a technology company.  Almost every company has software developers and writes software products.  I work at a bank as a software developer to further the business of the bank.  Wisely, my employer clearly claims to be a bank and not a technology company.&lt;p&gt;Examples of technology companies are companies that sell technology as their end product like NVIDIA, Intel, AMD, Apple, Micron, and so forth.</text><parent_chain><item><author>radicaldreamer</author><text>It&amp;#x27;s always amusing to me how people in tech want to have very private lives where they control their public image very carefully while building tools and networks which take away that ability from others.&lt;p&gt;From the Facebook engineers doing this while working on facial recognition to Peter Thiel going after Gawker while funding Palantir, this seems like a near universal double standard in tech today.</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Facebook Employees Are Reportedly Deleting Controversial Internal Messages</title><url>http://fortune.com/2018/03/31/facebook-employees-are-reportedly-deleting-controversial-internal-messages/</url></story>

I don&amp;#x27;t think so.&lt;p&gt;For some people, however, this might feel acceptable.&lt;p&gt;It is a bit of a shame because of we can&amp;#x27;t act ethically ourselves, I fear clumsy regulations will be created to correct us. We should have done better with the power we had.</text><parent_chain><item><author>radicaldreamer</author><text>It&amp;#x27;s always amusing to me how people in tech want to have very private lives where they control their public image very carefully while building tools and networks which take away that ability from others.&lt;p&gt;From the Facebook engineers doing this while working on facial recognition to Peter Thiel going after Gawker while funding Palantir, this seems like a near universal double standard in tech today.</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Facebook Employees Are Reportedly Deleting Controversial Internal Messages</title><url>http://fortune.com/2018/03/31/facebook-employees-are-reportedly-deleting-controversial-internal-messages/</url></story>
