It is getting to the point now where if you believe that Facebook is an innocent bit of fun, you\u2019re likely a na\u00efve child<\/strong> who is totally unaware that the world does not revolve around your own experience. Fortunately, however, children and young people, in general, are switching off from the social network behemoth as it staggers from crisis to crisis because mum and dad have made Facebook uncool.<\/p>\n

The lame factor is the least of Facebook\u2019s problems at the moment, however, as the latest crisis is so big that it could see head honcho Zuckerberg hauled in front of government officials<\/strong> to explain how his creation has reeked so much damage. This is, of course, the Cambridge Analytica crisis<\/strong>, which has seen millions of Facebook users\u2019 details land in the hands of politically motivated actors<\/strong>, seemingly devoid of any moral compass and who are willing to use the data they\u2019ve amassed in the service of the highest bidder.<\/strong><\/p>\n
