Report: Facebook caught sharing secret data with advertisers

artplumber 05-20-2010 07:43 PM

No surprise. Just follow the money. Same thing will happen in a more open way with RFID.

Because your Teets are bigger now????????????

I don't do facebook - so enlighten me -- if you friend request someone, does that mean that person is now pregnant with your child or something?!? ;)

Just sayin'

I didn't even know that "milt" was a verb!

McLovin 05-21-2010 09:21 AM

it's a synonym of the verb "favre"

McLovin 05-21-2010 09:24 AM

As far as Facebook, I guess if people want to do that, post up a bunch of personal stuff on the internet (which will be there forever, not subject to real deletion or future control by the poster), that's ok.

But to expect it to be or remain private, not given to advertisers, being accessed by who-knows-who, and someday likely being accessed by lots of people . . . well that's just being silly.

nostatic 05-21-2010 09:27 AM

I don't really have expectations of privacy with that info. Where I draw the line is when their system starts sending messages on my behalf to people in my network without initiation/action on my part. At that point, I unplug from the borg.

Tobra 05-21-2010 10:17 AM

I don't have any expectation of privacy, figure it is public info the moment I post it.

That would be my alter ego, "melt."

I'm with ya 100% on that one.

Jim Richards 05-22-2010 04:07 AM

Me too.

I don't have a pressing business/professional need for FB, so, it was never something that I considered using. PPBBS is as close to social networking as I can take.
