     By the way, this is Facebook’s actual threat – “we will take away these jobs”:

     Time for Ireland and the EU to decide whether they want to live as Facebook’s bitch or not.

     Dear EU,

     When I spoke at the parliament a few years ago, I told you how we could chart a different course forward to put ownership and control of our digital selves into our own hands and unshackle us from Silicon Valley.
