I don't care if the comment is not PC, to do that is just retarded.Tribble wrote:Hey! I am sure there is a rule about calling yourself and others retards. If not here should be. Just be careful and don't put too much personal info on. One of my friends included his street address in his profile - now that is just asking for trouble.

Hmm what helpfullness.....
I have some issues with facebook - it was one thing when it consentrated on communities... its seriously dangerous on a global level. It means your personal information is out there, (we have seen how certain google bots have harvested personal info from secure companies... how secure is the facebook servers?). Not only that the great US of A are collecting more and more info of people all over - who will be next? what is Big Brother doing with that information? I posted an article in jamin's CD thread that will refer to what i'm talking about. Is this the beginnig of the One Global Computer? Will it know that the answer is 42? Is this were we are moving towards each having our barcode and if you are not part of this "online group" you are a lonely retarded soul?
I agree, its marvelous to be able to find information regarding people - but i would rather it be only in my groups and not the connect to the whole world.

"Integrity" and "integer" both contain a Latin root meaning "whole; complete." The root sense, then, is that people may be said to be acting with integrity when their beliefs, words, and actions have a sense of unity or wholeness.
Yea Jee i agree, i heard some danergous stuff regarding the EULA of Facebook too, and the few people that have disected it seem to think that its just an infomation harvesting device.... that scary :-S i'm changing my Email addy and my phone number

In Facebook's terms and conditions it states that any and every piece of information (Even pictures) that you put on there becomes the sole property of FB. It also states that they can do whatever they like with it, even sell it to other companies. 8Ojee wrote:Hmm what helpfullness.....

Basically, if you put any info on there, then they can take that and make a profit out of it.

They wont abuse it, no sense in doing so... Would hurt them more than it would help...

You were just installing any random app?
I have trakz0r, where I've been, photo's and thats it, I think...
My control panel is full of apps that want to install, I just ignore them all.
That's probably the most annoying thing about facebook!

If the Google bots manage to find the info then it wasn't very 'secure'. They can only follow static html links - hiding stuff behind any sort of form with standard buttons will stop a spider dead in its tracks. javascript hinders it hectically as welljee wrote:Hmm what helpfullness.....

There comes a time for every vampire when the idea of eternity becomes momentarily unbearable. Living in the shadows, feeding in the darkness with only your own company to keep, rots into a solitary, hollow existence.
