War with Facebook

[mrcash2009]

No it was just a site I no longer wanted to be a part of so I chose to go out with style. Nothing implied on here.

Cant say I would do that myself, but I guess if your wanting to go out in style

I deleted my facebook once over concerns of the real world but I don't worry anymore. Those were job related. Privacy has never been a concern of mine.

Well I think general privacy is something to balance but you mention the work side of things and I would agree that this is an area that highlights facebook on whether it helps or hinders you online.

I suppose asking about privacy concerns is a bit open to interpretation, probably the best question is where Facbook isn't being very "social" and is beyond simply networking and helping.

I didn't want to just log off, I've talked crap about that forum on related forums. Better that anyone visits sees that HyperU2 is banned. lol That's another thing, I may have this silly name but it's consistent on ever forum I use. Can't say I'm hiding much on those either.

We had a number of employees at a local hospital (I work in healthcare) get fired over some postings, even those who liked the statuses. I think you can set the privacy options fairly restrictive now, so that only your friends can see what you post. I have found simply updating my status to "at the pub" brings out a lot of friends without the need for multiple text messages. It's convenient.

Facebook Ireland is under fire for allegedly creating "shadow profiles" on both users and nonusers alike.

Interesting to say the least.

Blurring the lines

[Tonci87]

I thought the Onion reported FAKE news?

Well....

If you thought I posted it as it was real then dear me.

I posted "blurring the lines" because tongue in cheek its not far of the mark in many ways, you know, satire imitating reality and visa versa. It has a good point to make underneath the humour.

Facebook 'to seek consent for privacy changes'

Privacy campaigners have welcomed a report that Facebook is to ask users to opt into any changes in the way it uses their personal information.

I wonder how this will be implemented and how much people will still click into it blindly from their mobile phones Icon out the box.

Well it was one big scam, judging from "official" Anonymus Twitter. And well, nothing happened.

Milions or at least few nice thousands got fooled, meh.
