### Facebook is Censoring My History!
As I scroll through my Facebook feed most of what I see from my history of posts is now censored!  What was once seen by friends and family, no one can see anymore.  Its maddening!  Many of these posts were sharing information about what was occurring with Edward Snowden and how all of the big tech companies were spying on us, everywhere and even with the government!  Cant see those posts anymore, what are they trying to hide, the fact that theyre already spying on us?  Many people already know, and even worse, they profit from it! 
### Data Integrity Matters
One may not worry about their data privacy and control today, but my history and the worlds history shows that its the concern for the future that matters.  To censor, is to silence, to erase history and theyre already guilty of it.  This is what has happened on Facebook.  No one can see that part of history anymore and thats not just for my feed and my friends, thats for the almost three billion people on Facebook!  Maybe people can find that information off of Facebook, but thats a very dangerous notion that almost half the worlds population cant see that information anymore on the worlds largest social network!  So, whats the real problem…centralization of data and control of that data.

Thats why we created Federated, where YOU can control your own data!  We have a saying, “not your keys, not your data.”  Thats why we have created a solution for the +30 million small businesses in the US and many more abroad!  What if in the near future Google says “we dont like your type of business anymore...no GSuite for you!”  Then what?  It may not be an issue today, but history shows it will likely be an issue in the future.  Get ahead while you still can!  Your keys, your computer, 100% private and with HUMAN support.
