@ Yokenny

KGB had a name change to FSB few years ago

But its only a name change. Nothing else.

KGB and FSB is the same.

There is nothing called Privacy in Facebook.

There is if you set it up correctly and not grant Everyone access.

lol, funny I read about two days ago about a web site whose team got banned from facebook because their single goal was to help out newbies on deactivating their accounts there. Even the mentioning of the "project" is systematically wiped from FaceBook , like related posts by anyone can't be published.

Funny to hear that haha!

...the thing is too many people just don't realize how much from their privacy they put at risk on social networks, and there are reactions, and attempts to make people a bit more aware, that's normal.

Seppukoo.com is under attack

Les Liens Invisibles wants to inform everyone that on Dec. 16th, Facebook inc., after it has blocked any attempt of seppukoo from this website and has blocked/deleted all seppukoo.com information into the whole facebook network, has now threatened legal action against us in order to stop the suicide pandemic.

Curiously, Facebook lawyers appeal to the user right to privacy to annihilate our facebook unsubscribe service.
