Saving clicks: the title should be read as "I'm no longer using Facebook", not "I no longer work for Facebook"

It would have been much more interesting to read a former Facebook employee’s story about leaving the company rather than one of their billion users deciding to move on.

So brave.

"Again, this isn’t a political statement. "

I totally thought it was a political statement. Stick it to the man and all that. It's this generation's Vietnam.

I'm sure there'll be another "why I'm leaving Facebook" post in a few minutes - there certainly seem to be a plague of them; perhaps one of the next few will be by someone with the bottle to do it for purely political reasons.

These posts about people leaving their jobs are so egocentric.

Who cares if some dude is leaving a big company.

Didn't even read the article, did you?

Seems very reasonable.

see you soon on the other side, spacecowboy!

Courage.
