Don’t Trust Facebook with Your Love Life
Can we talk about the NYT's fairly open anti-tech bias at this point? What feels like every day, they come up with some pre-text to write (or publish, in the case of editorials) an anti-tech article. Two today, the Amazon one, and now this.<p>Certainly, there are big problems with some aspects of tech and they ought to be reported on. But it seems like there's something a bit more going on here than that, given their willingness to publish silly, conceptually thin articles like this. This entire editorial is essentially content free. The only point it makes is to summarize Facebook's shortcomings, which didn't require the launch of a new dating feature to do, if it had something new to say. But it didn't, so it used FB's announcement as a pretext to publish a set of stock criticisms.
