Sure , dump Facebook etc, but arfcom is still a form of social media.

So you better drop this too.

I guess I might be naive but ARFCOM has little in common with Facebook.  Facebook is now demanding real names to identify profiles and the way "friends" are linked and facial recognition software is used anonymity is literally impossible.  Plus, to be be frank, this site has a much stronger set of behavior rules.  You could get in much, much more trouble on Facebook with racy and/or racist posts than you could get into here.

Not to mention the whole "Stop Posting Your Everyday Lives" thing.

I could literally see that as happening.

I could also see being forced to keep up a social media profile because employers use it to dig up dirt on hires and treat people who keep their lives a secret an unknown commodity.

I could also see people being told how to "groom" their social media presence artificially to make them more hire-able and get better loans.

I really want, to want to do it.  But i just don't.  Years ago, I'm talking when it was new back in the 00's, I did Linkedin and Facebook, and made a real effort to "get into it".  I contacted a lot of people I'd lost touch with, or from college or high school.  ...and then I realized there was a reason I had lost touch with them.  

Then my firm really clamped down on "social media".  We had to eliminate our Linkedin accounts, and jump through all sorts of hoops on what we could say and do on Facebook.  It was monitored.  It was a compliance nightmare.  So, I just let it all go.  

My wife and kids do it, and seem to like doing it.    I guess I'm just not "new economy" social.  I'm satisfied with the semi-anonymous friends, with avatar names, i have on this and a couple of other forums, and my "old economy" friends and associates that I communicate with face to face.  

I guess I'm just genetically not hip.

Facebook will tell you what type of person that you're dealing with.

The quickest snapshot of an individual (no pun intended), is their images page.

You see within seconds what is important to that individual - what their priorities are.

If I look and see a bunch of pics of kids at soccer practice, I'm dealing with a much different person than if I see a bunch of photos of liquor bottles and weed.

Extended buyer's remorse time, more compliance officers required.  Among other things.   Basically making it more costly/risky for banks to loan people money for homes.
