I would suggest that we not post anything personal on Facebook until we see what happens with Mark Zuckerberg, who is in hiding.

I don't put anything personal on there anyway.

Never did.

@LilacTree Why? I know my info it out there... unless you have something to hide, I am not fearful of Facebook or anything for that matter... and you do not have to be on Facebook to have your personal info sold and traded... everyone does it.. banks, insurance..... even the grocery store.

It was just reported that Zuckerberg will speak today.

While I have a FB page, I do not post.

I'm not a member, and very glad of it. Mr. Zuckerburg has some 'splainin' to do.

I belong to Facebook but very rarely get on it. I didn’t know Mark was in hiding but then again I don’t watch the news.

@tansy

I only post family photos and "Happy Birthdays." I have never filled out any personal information, nor do I have discussions of any kind. And I only have about 20 "friends," all family members and a few very close friends.

I never put personal info on FB, never have. But I do post, just like here.

I read that Zuckerberg will release a statement within 24 hours. That should be very, very interesting.

I don't post much on there anyway. I keep constantly (sometimes 2 times a day) a little blip on my laptop telling me I should tell my friends what I've been up to on facebook. I just delete it. Ugh!

I have friends that post everything on there. It's crazy.

Re: Facebook

Spurt — Wed, 21 Mar 2018 15:33:51 GMT

Im not on mine that much and its usually pet photos or funny cartoon or funny pet video or an inspirational quote.........

But if you put your real birthday in your profile that and your name is something that the identity theft people can start with....................

My sister does that and it drives me crazy---if we are at the movies, having lunch/dinner at a restaurant, shopping she has to post it....she's really addicted......

I don't have a problem with Facebook or Mark Zuckerberg. All social media platforms are vulnerable in today's world.

@Spurt Yes... false birthdays... and give no personal info.... that is fine..... But just search your name on google your name alone gives someone everything about you including your home address and what you paid for your home and what taxes you pay..... EVERYTHING is out there on everyone if you do anything on the internet or even if you do not have a computer. It does not matter. You can not stop your information from being sold or looked at by strangers no matter how careful you think you are.
