Isn't Facebook correctly assuming that if you use it you're okay with your life being an open book? They've never attempted to hide it and everyone who's uncomfortable with that has moved on, or at least using it very conservatively.
So who exactly has a problem with this?
- stephengillie 13y agoJust who are these people who have secrets? Which people depend on the ignorance of the people around them to live their lives? Are you afraid your wife might learn about your mistress? Are you afraid your business partners (bosses, coworkers, corporate contacts, government regulators) might learn about your communicable diseases? Are you afraid your religious associates might learn about your immoral activity? Are you afraid your children might learn about your illegal smuggling operations? Are you afraid your Amish friends might learn of your technology company?
- freehunter 13y agoThe question wasn't "who needs to keep a secret", but rather "who is depending on Facebook to keep their secrets?" It's a valid point, the media has blared long enough that Facebook can't be trusted with secrets. If someone doesn't know that by now, they haven't done the due diligence that should be reasonably expected of anyone communicating online.
- aeturnum 13y agoAre you telling facebook any of this? Why would you? Are there instances of facebook (or anyone else) notifying wives of mistresses? It seems much more likely that making a wall post to your mistress with the wrong account is the new call on the family cell phone, which was the new letter to the wrong address of its day.
