Yet another reason why I don't do Facebook.

Yep another reason to avoid it altogether! Loved your link!

Southern Idaho inactive....I don't mean to be rude or mean. But why are so many of your posts about facebook? I worked for Google and it's really not that evil. I'm familiar with the industry. Neither is facebook. You can adjust your settings to be seen or not be seen. If you don't want to be on it, you don't have to! I'm just wondering why it's such a huge issue for you. Can you please explain why you keep posting about it? I'm really just curious now.

My profile pic is Ramona Lisa (Mona Lisa if she was in The Ramones), so I'm not really that bothered.

If privacy is important to people, it's best not to fully expose your identity on Facebook, period.

And my current profile is a sunset ocean, but do they use the current pic or a past profile pic?

My profile pic is usually a picture of one of my pets.

Same here. Nothing requires an actual picture of the person be posted. I have pictures on FB, but none are of me or other people, because I would never post a picture of another person without their permission.

i don't do facebook..... because i don't want facebook to do me.

My profile is either Madame Blavatsky of Theosophist fame or Maureen O'Hara in Sinbad. They can have it.

My Facebook photo is of me. They can have it, it's not that big of s deal.
