Facebook: Ads help keep us free

Facebook has kicked off a new Web page explaining how and why the social network depends on advertising.
"Selling your information would actually be bad for Facebook. Here's why: Facebook was created to help you share and connect with the people in your life. If you don't feel like you're in control of who sees what you share, you probably won't use Facebook as much, and you'll share less with your friends."
I won't be in control with the continuous privacy changes Facebook makes, so I won't use it at all. I don't even trust it enough to make a fake account just for fun.
