oh facebook…you strike again!
i am almost beginning to believe that facebook is becoming a nemisiss of mine! facebook stalking has reached an all time high and now its really starting to make me mad! aside from being able to add just about anybody if you do not limit you profile(which i might add takes some time) but the fact that just about anybody can read your information. now facebook tends to also ask some very personal questions. for example there is an option for not only simpler things like which sex are you interested in, and you choose men or women. ok no so scandalous, but then some questions like which kind of politics do you believe in? then there are options like very liberal to very conservative…wow does that not seem like a loaded question to anyone else??? then there is also an option for religion…what religion do you follow? then there a number of options including ‘other’ then you can write your own. now i worry about people maybe saying they are men who are interested in men…like there are people out there who might send then hateful messages or something. maybe i am being paranoid b/c i got facebook stalked a lot before i changed my profile. but i mean how do some people handle things…but finding out someone is gay at their high school and then bringing a gun? ok so now i sounds bit crazy but it seems like there are just more and more crazy kids out there. ok yeah facebook also has a “you have to 17″ rule sign in…but they don’t verify in any way all you do is change your birthday. so whats to stop younger teens from doing it? nothing!
this kind of stuff is going under the radar way too much, you can ban this kind of stuff at school/work etc. but you can’t stop facebook. you can get access to the library, internet cafes, a friends house or at home. and this kind of dramatic teen crap seems to be working its way into the schools and in many cases ending in violence…
facebook you have disappointed me, and no you don’t have to fill out much of your profile but if you choose to remember you can reprimanded for certain decision by certain people who may feel differently sometimes.
the count now: roz-0/facebook-2
here’s a sample profile for you to paruse…
