How do you delete a Facebook account? I never even signed up for
one: they signed me up, after accessing my email account without my
permission. I don't trust them at all. I tried 4 times to tell my
whole Facebook story to Fox news, and it always got deleted toward
the end: there was no profanity, insults, no legal reason to keep
deleting my posts. I logged in to try to delete my Facebook
account. After that, my computer barely ran at all. HELP!
Since I have never had a Facebook account, and have no intention
of getting one, I couldn't give a monkey's what they do. Facebook
has been a hacker's and spammer's paradise for many years, and I
have previously rated Facebook as such. The latest controversy only
reinforces my opinion about that site.
There's something called Facebook Lite. It's the social part of
facebook minus all the fluff and puff (including the games). Have
you tried that? Maybe you won't be getting game invites there. I
play the games so I've never tried it, but I figure it was worth a
mention to you.
Never had a Facebook account and never will bother with it as it
is nothing more than an open book, for all to see, on your personal
life.
Beware facebook users, hackers, ID fraudsters and other
malicious users are no longer your only concern. Facebook can be
added to this by sharing your personal info with every tom, dick
and harry.

Hear hear! They might lure you in with their promises and the
"everyone's on Facebook" idea, but just remember: all the lemmings
jumped off the cliff, too.
I really don't see this as a big deal, not something I'd freak
out over or deactivate my account over. Anyone who would do that is
blowing this way out of proportion.
They seem good to everyone, but only because not everyone cares
to remember the privacy rule: If you blab your personal data in
public, it'll get stolen eventually.
I just disable all the information sharing and yes Facebook I
don't need your so-called enhanced experience. I think it is very
important for people now to be extra careful with their
information. Remember, anything that you publicly post on the
Internet becomes known to everyone. I just give basic details along
with a fake birth date that I don't show. I use a picture of my cat
and then just general pictures. I see it as it is available to all
the world to see so don't put anything on your profile that you
don't want the world to see. Finally, remember Face-book keeps your
records even though you delete them.
When Facebook changes, it's usually for the worse. And they
don't even have to tell you, as they have the right to change TOS,
without informing users. Sometimes users notice it nevertheless and
a major uproar follows, and then FB rolls their new "feature" back,
at least for a while. Do worry, they'll try again next year...
Have never used facebook, not that interested... however one of
my friends recently created a profile for me and after some
"research" i have understood that it is actually a very useful tool
if used in a good way.
I never really cared much for facebook. Signed up in something
like 2007, though haven't made any changes to it since shortly
after that, so these don't really affect me much.
From what I heard that was a good decision on my part, as a lot
of facebook updates have been incredibly degenerative,
apparently.
with numerous friends all over the country and in foreign lands
and not the time to email them all individually and still have a
life and work but a strong desire to keep in touch i use facebook a
lot. I've had support for all kinds of issues from networking on
there and have got work. if you're happy to network for work or
socially on the internet it's as good a route as any . it's all
customisable, if you've had the sense to set up your privacy
sensibly in the first place when there's an update and everyone
gets their iKnickers in a twist you can generally quickly check and
find your info is still about as secure as before. you don't put
anything that would be disastrous if it got out on there of course,
in the same way you don't email your mate slagging off your boss,
and saying how you shagged her husband, because you might
accidentally send it to the whole office :)
i also go on the basis of blocking most games individually,
blocking people I distrust, only friending people I know in person,
limiting everything to only be seen by friends, all those kind of
things.
really.
there are so many panics and scares about what fcebook is going
to do (along with the "join this group to cheat at your game" or
"join this group to see this funny video") which are clearly
blatant address harvesting sites that I am starting to think that
actually encouraging those with a chicken-licken/daily-mail
response to quit facebook is a good idea since it'll leave us with
less panic-spam and a facebook populated by people who have the
sense not to click on those harvesters, and thus the harvesters,
unfed and unpropogated will die out.
- are for getting contact with people. To hide any private
content is ridiculous. If I don't want, that any spy can find it, I
don't put it in the web! All of my site is completely public
besides my friends. Who hides his personality on a social site may
be a
spammer
spy
spinner
stalker
scum
Schäuble
It is the base of a social site, to introduce you, to meet
people with similar interests - or you have the possibility to look
for different people - Facebook makes it possible! Who is afraid to
be seen by anyone, should not join a social site! Although burqas
will be banned soon everywhere, you will find other places to
hide!
:-D
If I zapp through my TV progs - I will find at the most times any
station, that warns to use Facebook! Why?
Why don't these masters of world wide opinion warn to take credit,
put chemical sweeteners in your coffee or vote for war criminals as
a president?
Because social sites are a trace of democracy and you can then
exchange informations, which the media groups never will share. You
can collect signatures and send it to the so-called leaders of the
free world. And they can not ignore it, because there are many
thousands of witnesses! It is he last place, where can be changed -
or at least braked some social and political decline!
You can get in touch with people from different cultures and
different social systems. You can hear first hand how they assess
their situation. And what they think about the actions of Western
nations, what their media tells them and you will notice, that all
humans are brothers.
You can gain vast knowledge and you will get an image of life on
earth - beyond your local town sign.
You must be warned! This is dangerous!
For those who try to share hate and misunderstanding it is a
disaster.
People who are willing to operate online banking, deleted their
Facebook account, because the media companies have recommended it
to them!
What terrible secrets did you offer to the public before you
deleted your account? What are you afraid on Facebook?
That anyone realizes that you are frightened?
They know this already - be sure!
Even though I have a facebook account, but I'm not interested by
it at all and not using it.(I just like to create an account
whenever I found a safe site doesn't have my account)
Somewhat I really don't understand why did most of the people in my
country are being like a facebook maniac? All of them was like keep
asking me the same question "did you have a facebook account?"
rather than asking for e-mail address...and these question had been
repeated by many of them, it made me sick to keep hearing the same
thing again and again.
and I have been seeing most of the facebook user are being.....(I
don't know how to explain it)
I made no changes and don't really care. From day one I assumed
everything I put on there was public and it is treated as such so I
don't concern myself with anything they (FB) do on the
back-end.

One more time,
If it's changes again like that, i'll delete my account. but I can take it as long as I can.

facebook changes
I fully understand and agree with your statement...
unfortunately I have hard to reach family and friends that require me to keep an account
open with FB... but I shut down almost all the features... and monitor my account as
needed then direct any family and friends to contact me outside of FB...
besides that, if I get another invite to one more of those stupid games I'll @#$%!!!

Facebook Lite
Isn't that where they just nick your personal details without giving anything in return?
Other for me too
I never have, and never will have a Facebook. Their privacy policy has always been ridiculous, this is just one more strike against them.

It's been turned off for me by default. Is that supposed to be like that?
