lennykravitz2004 Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 Depending on how "private" your account is on Facebook, as well as what Facebook might feel is "private enough", imagine getting a letter from your health insurance company telling you they have dropped you. You check the box for "non-smoker" for example, and you're seen enjoying a cigar... well, that's for them to interpret as falsifying your application. Now their face-searching technology can find you in, not only your own photos, but also in your friend's photos. You know, those friends who took pictures of you and posted them from that wild party? Job searches, health insurance, you name it... good bye anonymity. And the dipdiaper dirt article writer makes this sound so awesome and cool, as an "improvement"! Took a day off work and called in sick to go to the baseball game? Some stranger takes a picture with you in the background and uploads it to Facebook, and if your face has already been tagged... guess what... no hiding that anymore. Call me paranoid, call me a conspiracy theorist, I just hope you don't call me "correct" in this instance. Not that I know everything about IT, but as an IT professional, I don't belong on Facebook for very specific reasons. Reasons like "privacy". Facebook should be burned in the same pile as artificial turf - to the ground. Just my (and anger). http://proxify.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
