 Actually other than in the cartoon (cartoons always show simplified versions of reality) Facebook offers a 3rd and a 4th option: Set your post to be kind of "private" by default and wait until the default changes afterwards. And share your post with your friends, their friends and I think also the friends of everyone else who pressed the "share" button on it. Yuck!
-: Facebook as several sharing options, but they take a bit of time to set up.  You can collect your friends into groups and (on a per-post basis) specify that your posts are only to be visible to people in certain groups.  Much like the (soon-to-be-gone) Google+'s concept of circles.  I used that for years (before I shut down my FB account altogether) to categorize my posts and only show them to friends I think care about the subject (e.g. only show politics and religion posts to those not likely to respond with flames, keep movie and TV reviews from those who hate spoilers, etc.)  [[User:Shamino|Shamino]] ([[User talk:Shamino|talk]]) 15:59, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

 Pretty sure the title text is meant to have been spoken by "the screen" vs. Randall/Cueball.  The screen is attempting to appease Cueball's privacy concerns by proposing that if a company such as Google, Amazon, eBay, etc. mines a large number of Cueball's social posts for their own agenda, instead of notification of that event, Cueball will instead receive a single "like" to one of his posts at random from the company's CEO.  This practice would be deceptive and of little value.  Cueball might easily miss the like, not know who the CEO of various companies are, may forget the significance of receiving such a like, etc.  [[Special:Contributions/172.69.46.16|172.69.46.16]] 19:42, 1 February 2019 (UTC)Pat
