Privacy and why should I give a ****

I don't need to get in shape. I'm already awesome.

I heard many employers are checking the internet for information about their employees, escpacially new employees... so for said employees having such a picture as you've shown (or even worse, ones where they are shown to drink too much alcohol) on a facebook account without private options, can become VERY "bitter".

So Frank, I heard you like women, how well is it going for you to attract such creatures in their natural habitat?


Meister@ There actually has been an incidence where a guy sued an employer because he asked the employee for their Facebook details INCLUDING the password to his account. That was one hell of a company asking for such things, in fact he wasn't the only one who had that asked, many before him did and they gave it away, he was the 9th person to actually sue him.

You'd think people would know their rights by now.

My lack of success is purely because of my awesomeness holding me back. I'm _very_ hard to get.

So you are a "spy" by nature?  ;D

[frvge]

Yes. I am mostly watching the girls. Then doing nothing. Like pure "ghosting".

Privacy is important because if you live long enough and do enough things, you're going to come across people who you don't want to find you. Maybe it's because they didn't like your clothing style, or maybe it's something much more serious than that.

Women are much more at risk than men for this sort of thing, but as an example do you want that crazy ex to have all of your contact information? Do you want her to have the ability to use it to at best call you at weird hours of the night and at worst open bank accounts or credit cards in your name?

Perhaps there is a thief looking for a nice house to rob in a certain area. Well, your pictures sure look nice and you posted your address, so now it's a matter of just staking out the place.

Most random strangers aren't going to peruse facebook to steal your identity, but why take the chance?

Also, I second that employers are now searching social networking sites in order to screen employees. If you set all your settings to private, they can't spy on you and you come across as a responsible person who guards his personal information.

As far as facebook and women, it's more trouble than it's worth. The minute you start something up and then add another female friend, all hell breaks loose, even if it's your 3rd cousin who lives 9 hours away.

So privacy on the web is not just about identity theft. While overblown, identity theft does happen, but the other side of the coin is protecting your information from people who you know but don't want to know THAT well.

Another thing to ponder...

Why do people lock their doors when they leave their homes? Anyone determined to steal your shit will just break the nearest window...

I guess I should just leave my windows wide open too, after all they're just gonna go over the fence, into my garden and break through the back door. :o
