Any Facebook users here?
I have an account, but hardly use it much. I've been thinking about deleting it, but the wife is on it all the time.
Re: Any Facebook users here?
Nope. Had an account years ago, but once they started changing sharing settings every few days, I deleted it off.
Re: Any Facebook users here?
im on it but dont post much .I do use the message service on it do .
Re: Any Facebook users here?
I have one that I use mostly for messaging with my kids and a couple of friends. I may spend some time a couple of times a week looking through what my friends have posted. I rarely post. I run it with max privacy and with FB purity on top of adblock+ , so I never see an ad. With FB purity, you can also block posts that contain keywords like "*rump" .

Been dragged into it recently to stay in touch with some friends and family. I despise it though. I hate how they constantly send me updates and suggestions and ignore my preferences not to be bothered by that crap.
Christians warn us about the anti-christ for 2,000 years, and when he shows up, they buy a bible from him.

Re: Any Facebook users here?
I still have mine. I mainly use it to follow bands and artists I like. My blocked list is longer than my friends list.

If you're accessing it on your phone, you need to make sure you log out. Not just close the app.FlyingPenguin wrote:Been dragged into it recently to stay in touch with some friends and family.

Re: Any Facebook users here?
anyone who is using should install fb purity. It has a lot of settings that let you block the ads and most of the FB crap. I belong to a couple of groups that were set up specifically as private special interests groups (college friends, etc.)

apparently the data slurp by FB and android devices = everything
people you called or messaged using android apps were likely picked up.
