I think most smart phones have a camera and mic however I do remember of one phone on the market with physical kill switches for the camera and mic. Not sure if there are more like that out there.

Agreed. Fb really messed up our society badly. I would never support a company like this. When fb first came out, a few of my friends got cheated on because of it. It allowed random people to message others, and the unfaithfulness began because of opportunity.haroldliang wrote: ↑ I'm sorry op, anything facebook is an instant downvote from me. They are the most evil platform to exist, I can go on for days on just how evil and divisive their platform has made our society become. Deleted my facebook account a decade ago and will never ever look back.

No, the point of quitting FB is quitting ALL of them. ALL of them. The entire company is corrupt and while other companies currently have relatively-benign leadership (even though there's no guarantee that within Google and Amazon and Apple right now there isn't a MiniZuck exerting influence and jockeying for promotion) Facebook's leadership has been corrupt from day one, and will only get worse.

I'm sorry you are that misinformed. You are comparing 2 different things. FB came first between the other apps you mentioned. Also bumble, tinder etc.. is made specifically for people trying to date and hookup to meet random people, FB on the other hand was not made for that. But yes Facebook paved the way for all of these other apps to be created. It's not the app that made people cheat, but it is the app that allowed easier acess towards cheating, and where predators could contact random people and try to hustle them.DasHip wrote: ↑ ?

Facebook seems waaay too easy to blame for societies woes.. Facebook made those women/men cheat on your friends, hey? Wow. Given that reasoning, I would suppose and think that Tinder and Bumble and Plenty of Fish are also responsible for the destruction of relationships and marriages as well..... I mean, "The App made them do it".... It "allowed random people to message others" and "unfaithfulness began because of opportunity".
Given that reasoning, Tinder has meant the absolute destruction of nearly ALL relationships, because, that's what it was designed to do -- allow random people to connect.
If you don't want to allow random people to communicate, go back to a dictatorship/communist country from whence you might have come.
In a democracy, it's pretty paramount for others to be able to communicate using multiple means.
Might I suggest that your friends relationships were doomed in the first place? Perhaps due to, say, a 'lack' of communication and/or shared intimacy?? Facebook only hastened that process.
I was considering buying one of these (first-gen) when it came out, like wow, years and years ago now -- BestBuy had a decent sale/intro offer of like $175 .. it was probably more than 5 years ago now, but they had a privacy breach then too and there was backlash. I heard they're pretty well designed for what they do. Kudos to the OP.

yuppp when my parents friends and older family members see this, they always ask what is that where do I get one because just going on an app for a video call is a struggle for older folks when we tried setting up family zoom call reunions lol I know exactly what you mean by this.sam123 wrote: ↑ I bought one about a year ago for my 87 year old mother. Opened a FB account for her. Ordered internet, modem delivered and connected it. She lives in an apartment in another city and was very computer illiterate. Our family is spread out across the world and this connects all of us.
I connected the internet I showed her how to use it. Now she can view her religious services, connect with all her friends, children, grandchildren and keep in contact with them. We can call and check up on her, keep her company and most importantly she feels less isolated in these covid times. Best $ I've spent to see her so happy to answer a call.
It was worth five times the price of this unit and internet fees. Actually, it's priceless for our purposes. Would I buy one for myself? NO WAY! It has it's uses for me and I'm happy with it.
Upvoted OP for being brave.
