The question of whether we’ll be uploading our consciousness to a computer is no longer if. It’s probably when. That’s because these digital consciousnesses – our essences – will likely be the product of an AI’s interpretation of ourselves. The breadcrumbs we’ll leave across digital files, images, videos, audio recordings, and, of course, all that social media will be an ample resource to reconstruct you.
If Cambridge Analytica wasn’t enough of a reason to leave Facebook, then you will probably continue using Facebook today even after reading this.
Facebook should have been shutdown then. Actually, it should have been shutdown even before then since the Edward Snowden leaks.

In any case, that also means Instagram too, you know that right?
