Presume no communication is private in the era of the Internet of Things (IoT)

For a week in September 2017, I created and used my new facebook account for the vorotrans artistic movement, an art movement that I am launching this fall. My goal was to reach the million facebook friends by the end of the fall.

In a week I sent lots of requests for friendships and in that same week, I made 5000 completely unknown facebook friends. Following the acceptance of the facebook friendship requests, they were all trying to get to chat with me. I think, in this week, I managed to chat with 1000 of these new unknown international facebook friends. Half of the people either asked to be extracted from their country, begged directly for money, or begged indirectly by asking for an iTunes card gift, looked for love online, or desperately seeked to come to my home in Montreal, invited me to their country, or assumed I was looking for love online, etc.
