ALTERNATIVES

Twitter has decided to be the arbiter of proper speech across the Internet.
They are installing cookies on unsuspecting users’ computers and monitoring where they go, both on and off of their social media site.
If a user strays into territory they don’t approve, Twitter says that as of Dec. 18, they will block the user from accessing their site.
That’s right. They will monitor all your usage and decide if you pass the “thought police” muster.

Just think of it, Twitter is going to spy on its users in a big way. And if they don't like what they see, you'll be banned. So, why bother being on Twitter. By December 18, 2017, I won't be.
But, if you would still like to follow me, there are alternatives.
I recently joined GAB. I'm still learning the site, but it seems to be another good alternative to Facebook and Twitter. You can find me here... gab.ai/tomline
I recently joined Tumblr. Again, I am still learning the site, but it also looks like a good alternative to Facebook and Twitter. Find me here... www.tumblr.com/blog/tomlineworld
Another site I'm a member of is called, "JoinDiaspora." I've actually been there for awhile. It is a good alternative to Facebook and Twitter. There, I'm here... www.joindiaspora.com/people/08c195f08c1501359cd80242ac110007
Another site I've been a member of for awhile is "Quora." There you can ask and answer questions based on your interests. It's different, but another good social site you might like. I'm here... www.quora.com/profile/Tom-Lineaweaver
If you want to follow me, you can do so at my sites.
First is called "Rescue America." Find it here... line2016.freeforums.net/
Next is "Our Lifebook," here... ourlifebook.freeforums.net/
Another is, "Kingdom of Christ," kingdomofchrist.freeforums.net/
Next is Country Frame of Mind Promotions... cfm-promotions.freeforums.net/
Then, "In The Mood For Pop," popmood.freeforums.net/
Next is, "Way of Truth Forums." This is my second site ever. So, it's about 6 or 7 years old. Find it here... wayoftruth.motion-forum.net/
All these sites are good alternatives to Facebook and Twitter. These are ones I'm involved with. But there are others. If you have problems with Facebook or Twitter, you don;t have to stay there. There are alternatives.
A word of caution. If you join an alternative site, get off Twitter. Twitter will be able to spy on those sites through you.
The deadline is December 18, 2017. That's the day Twitter will start their spying.
