What Dermot says is fine. I keep away from FB after watching my friends and relatives (some of them), make fools of themselves. THAT is dangerous!

That's what I mean by dangerous. That's why I keep away. If I want to talk to family or friends I'll call.

Yes, I joined and used it twice some years years ago.

Ever since I have been bombarded daily with stupid spam emails such as; you have 50 new messages, or Scintillating Synthia has made you her friend.

Escaping from Russia's Black Dolphin Prison would be easier than getting away from the clutches of facebook.

I'm pleased to note that their shares are sliding.

I follow an eagles nest cam in D.C. and once in a while I go on facebook to catch up on what's going on with the nest but I have a phony alias that I use. Because I don't link to anyone I'm not involved in any personal interaction. I hear from co-workers and friends about all sorts of nonsense that I'm glad to not be a part of. My sister has been after me for years to get a real account and I've repeatedly told her I won't submit to the data mining and intrusion. Now that we know the Russians are deeply involved in facebook I know I made the right decision.

I also hate how insidious facebook is in how they try to lever their way into our lives. I needed some cabinets a while ago and went to the store where I w was told I needed to log into facebook in order to choose what style of cabinets I wanted. What the hell? No sale. F facebook.

F B is an excellent tool for business and networking, my page is strictly to do with my business and not one image of family , friends etc , appears on it , it’s strictly for me anyway about business as in self promotion

95% of my Facebook activity is small talk with family and friends from long ago. I don't think there's much in that which can be used against me.

That's okay. But too many tell when they're going on vacation and their house is empty, What valuables thy just bought, where and when their children are going, etc. THAT is dangerous.

Hello,

I HATE Facebook. To increase their value to advertisers, did you know that your Safeway card, among others, are secretly linked to your Facebook account?? Advertisers want to know everything about you, and Facebook delivers.

I enjoy it but it does come with dangers that ignorant or foolish people choose to ignore. I use it for small talk with family/friends and to share certain pictures, nothing of which could be taken and used against me, nothing that I would be ashamed of years down the road. When you write it or post it online just expect everyone can see and it will never go away.
