Ist facebook.com sicher?

facebook is a reliable site for networking. sometimes a bit annoying! also you can no longer delete yourself. you can only pause your profile until you sign in again - that's not exactly deleting is it! also all of the comments etc you made remain live. forEVER.

Site under supervision of FBI and/or CIA. Data gathering, and profiing of costumers, depending on the data gathered. Costumers have almost no rights (see FAQ of Facebook). Still the most used social platform in the net, not to speek of the usefullness. Some apps are giving you e-mail to not trustworthy third parties, for commercial spam, phishing and scamming.

The site is good enough. Has got all the entertainments in it. But the apps, not all, a few of them, are not totally trustworthy. They seem to spam your mail. Moreover, some Like Pages are inappropriate for children. This site is good for children too, but under parental supervision. In short, Great site with few cons :)

In short: it's a good place if you are careful. Just like the rest of the internet. But... There is not much of privacy in social medias. People should think and read the Terms of Service carefully before joining social media sites and they rarely do. Especially I think this is not a place for children who often don't have the knowledge to be careful with places like this. Facebook also has a lot of privacy issues considering how the privacy settings have been spread in many places. If there is a really simple way to put everything hidden from somebody I don't know I haven't found it.

The site contains a certain customer site named "mood rainbow" in English, "Stimmungs-Regenbogen" in German. If you want to share your mood, you HAVE to allow this app access to most of your personal data, it posts on your personal site, timeline, etc. I can only say: Don't use this site ! Its data regulations are poor in my opinion !!!

Facebook is spyware, pure and simple. Its goal is not to provide communication services but to track and store information about individuals (regardless of their opt-in status on the site) and to sell advertising. Along with Google, it is one of the most invasive and privacy-hostile sites currently operating. Anybody who tries to tell you otherwise is completely clueless.
