Facebook

Who here uses Facebook? My sisters all use it and so does GA.

I am doing an assignment now, writing a report on an article, "Popularity fuels disclosure on Facebook." Do any of you think this is true? I find it amazing that a lot of people worry about security yet still post their full names and other personal details on Facebook.

I'm on there, but have it set so only friends can see my profile.

I have it to watch other people, not to let them watch me. Plus I have it on high security.

I only have a minimal presence there, no photo just a spot for people who I went to collage with to get an email

I find it amazing too.

Some people post their whole lives on Facebook, which would make it very easy for someone to stalk them.

I have Facebook but only my friends can see it.  Some people have their address, phone number and everything on it

I don't put my bank details on it - but I would be easy to stalk by anyone at my university or one of the 500 and some people on my friend lists. The thing is, having friends makes you safer from deviant personalities, plus I could be stalked anyway.

Deviant personalities?

I think having 500 people on your friends list makes it more likely that one of them could be that "deviant personality" you fear.

[Blasted]

I think most people these days just add everyone they ever knew.  I mean, I don't speak to 3/4 of the people on my friends list.  Nor do I like most of them particularly.

I don't have it set to high security, but then thankfully I also have an extremely common name, like Jane Smith. So if anyone's wanting to find me specifically, they'll have to hunt through all the other same names as mine.  

I'm not particularly active either. I use it more to keep up with a small handful of friends. And I only have people on my friends list who I know (either good online friends or people irl).

Main thing is never post on FB something you wouldn't want your employer (current or future) to know about you.

I know 500 people irl, the nature of this place is that there are going to be deviant backstabbing personalities about, Facebook or not. But, I unlike you, am not totally paranoid. Shit can happen, accept it.

It's not about paranoia, it's about choosing what you want to reveal about yourself, stalkers or no stalkers. Not everyone's like you, Hadron.
