Just a couple days ago I witnessed a demonstration of a program being developed for collection agencies, skip tracers, credit agencies, crime syndicates, Nigerian entrepreneurs that, by searching public data bases(Facebook,AOL, Yahoo, etc.) could find an association or link or connection with just about any two names entered into the search box. Using information found primarily on Facebook this program found a connection between myself and old girlfriend who I haven't spoken to in nearly 20 years and a person who I do business with on almost a daily basis. And it only took three levels of association to make the connection. The main connection between the two of us is actually someone I have never heard of,nor has he of me, and is currently living in a completely different country.
It was at the same time that I cranked back almost everything I could of my personal info on Facebook. The decision to keep our company page on Facebook will be a topic of conversation at the next corp. meeting.
