[Facebook] has some very good parts. I come from a large family. My mother was one of twelve, and my father one of six. I have more cousins once removed. Although my mother-in-law was only one of three, I have always been close with her family. I am honored to be the Godfather to some of her cousin's children. FB has made it easy to keep in touch with most. AS you can imagine, I spend a fair amount of time on FB. However, I feel different about posting images, except family snaps. I spend far too much time on FB; it's how I stay in touch with far-flung family and friends. But I hate FB. I hate the fake news, which even some of my more intelligent friends repost. I hate the inane things that I say. I do post all kinds of images. My latest is this one from a few minutes ago https://www.flickr.com/photos/primeval/24007358768. I'm seriously considering leaving FB at the end of the year; I think that it has become a threat to liberal democracy, a mouthpiece for the new KGB that I don't want to be part of. But I hate to lose the easy contact with family and friends. -- I agree with almost everything that you have said and almost everything that you will say in your entire life. usenet *at* davidillig dawt cawm |

But I hate to lose the easy contact with family and friends. The easy contact is the price we pay to listen to the fake and be listed on someone's commercial email list. My bitch about them is ethical. I have no problem with FB making money. I do object to the loss of privacy, and the granting of rights to any posted image. Most don't realize that they are giving FB the right to use their images commercially. Their user agreement is about as understandable to a lay person, as the attempts at disclaimer of liability in a parking lot. -- PeterN |

Do please explain why you disagree with my statement. what part of you're an idiot is not clear? and if that's not enough, you just this very morning intentionally and maliciously spammed one of the mac groups with a phishing site, making you into an obnoxious asshole as well. |
