Everyone Loves This!
Here is how it works:
You work for me, for no pay and I make billions!
I ask you to sign up to through my very secure server providing your name, email address, phone number and location.
You must click “I Agree” to the terms.
I will then verify your signup information.
Then, all I want you to do in your spare time is provide personal experiences and photos whenever you can.
Your information will be seen by others that you allow in an easy-to-use layout.
The others who opted in will have their information shared to the others that they allow.
And so on and so on. All for FREE!
You can then download an application to your phone to make sharing your experiences and photos much easier.
I will also provide an application that allows you to communicate with your allowed list via messaging and live video for FREE!
You will have a personal profile that you control that allows friends and relatives to see your profile should you desire.
AND you can even set up alerts so, when someone in your group adds something new, you get an instant notification!
All for FREE.
Sounds great right? Everyone just loves this and cannot seem to stop using my great program!
So you ponder… what’s in it for me, the creator and provider of this wonderful thing?
Why would I provide you with such a powerful personal online memoir at no cost?
Well, when you clicked “I Agree”, you allowed me the full rights to everything you post and your personal information.
You continually provide me with free content and I do nothing except make money from your efforts and activity.
Yes, your name, email and phone number have been reversed looked so, I know everything about you as well.
Traffic tickets, education, criminal record, address, previous address, all social media profiles, vehicles you own past and present, relatives, associates, education, jobs, browsing history, income and more.
Also your geo-location so, I can get all your neighbors names, address and so on for reverse lookups on them.
All of this information is GATHERED AND STORED IN MILLISECONDS from reverse lookup algorithms.
I then sell that information to the highest bidder. Hey, you agreed to this!
Thank you SO MUCH and… when you installed that app, you also allowed me access to ALL THE CONTACTS and files on your phone. (Hope you never took a pic of your driver’s license or SS card!)
So, even if they do not have an account with my platform, I have all of them, their families and neighbors’ information all reverse looked.
Again, my database of all collected information is available to that week’s highest bidder.
Another great thing is, I also get the revenue from the advertising around the content that you provide to me for FREE!
Thanks again for that! Keep it coming!
When you get that new pet, share it!
When a pet dies, family member passes, a friend is killed or any tragic event is shared, it is A HUGE REVENUE BOOSTER so, keep it coming you little cash generating lemmings.
Want to join up? LMFAO… you most likely already did and you have participated in this (morbid) revenue generating activity!
Fact is, you probably already have but, unfortunately, it was not MY program.
So, I beseech you, why are you on wastebook/meta?
Why not MAKE THAT MONEY FOR YOURSELF and keep all your personal information (and every contact on your phone) private?
Why not have all that effort you put into posting on wastebook/meta into your own personal site?
Lazy? Don’t know how? Well folks, it is because you are LAZY and YOU JUST DO NOT CARE!
It is soooo easy and soooo free to start your personal website.
Your friends can join, post, communicate, video stream and live chat to their hearts content.
You can even have it look like a wastebook/meta page if you so desire.
Better still, you make the money off of any advertising YOU CHOOSE to place on your website.
AND HEAVEN FORBID… you may actually learn something in the process.
So, you can keep putting money into Zuckerberg’s fat ($106.3 billion) pockets (all made from continually selling, exploiting, geo targeting everyone’s personal data (and strife)) or, you can choose to be part of the solution.
Yeah, I know, but Zuckerberg and his billions have done SO MUCH to help YOU…right?
2.85 billion wastebook/meta users currently.
Hmm, how much per account right…? Could have at least sent you a hundo. Are you pissed yet?
How much does he pay you for content you provided, personal info, all the contacts and files from your phone?
Now, if you have a business, that needs promoted, you need a website anyhow.
Wastebook/META can in fact be used successfully to HELP promote that website but, all communications NEED TO BE DONE THROUGH YOUR WEBSITE.
Only use wastebook/meta as on online business card. Disallow messaging, joining and everything. DO NOT INCLUDE A PUBLICLY VIEWABLE PHONE NUMBER OR EMAIL.
Direct them to your website for everything.
Just remember, wastebook/meta exists for one purpose: To make money off of selling VERY personal data and targeted advertising.
And, it is designed to be more addicting than heroin and has proven to be just that.
So, why don’t you stop using social media or, is it just “no problem” and you can quit anytime you want?
Hang up and think.

More about data harvesting. (from wiki)
Reverse lookup companies typically build their databases through a combination of methods, including:
Crowdsourcing: Many companies allow users to submit information about phone numbers, such as the name and address associated with a particular number.
This allows the company to build a large database of information through contributions from many different sources.
Public records: Some companies may use public records, such as property records or voter registration records, to match phone numbers with names and addresses.
Data brokers: Some companies may purchase data from data brokers, which are companies that collect and sell personal information.
Scraping: Some companies may use automated tools to scrape information from websites, such as social media profiles or online directories.

From my experience writing data scrapers for non-nefarious reasons like website mirroring and form submission validation:
Most reverse lookup algorithms, the good ones, utilize all data sources mentioned above.
They compile and compare all sources and validate the data.
The company I work for needs to validate the information people provide who sign up for their services.
So, my personally written reverse lookup algorithms are very powerful and collect a lot of data.
Therefore, I am well situated to express facts, not opinions, of why social media is so very dangerous.
I have seen it from the inside and it is an ugly beast that everyone just loves to feed.
