I dont partake in these social engineering websites, but to those that do, take some precautions.

FudgeNuggets · 04-27-10, 12:02 PM

I hate this stuff, Facebook and Myspace. I have no use for it. I don't want people or family from my past to look me up or check in on my activities. I reserved a Facebook account for my RC Racing activities but am undecided if I'm going to actually use it or not. I'll decide when the season starts up in a few weeks.

X0d1@k · 04-27-10, 12:12 PM

Probably safe that way right? I totally agree about long lost friends etc. There is a reason you have not contacted your best friend in Middle school right? hahah!

Twigglish · 04-27-10, 12:55 PM

I see what you guys are saying, but you'd be surprised who you reconnect with. An acquaintance of mine from middle and high school found me on Facebook. We wound up becoming very good friends, and even started a small business venture together.

BenF · 04-27-10, 01:12 PM

I didn't read the link you posted but I'm vary weary of posting a lot of info on facebook. I have a facebook account but I use it entirely to message friends living in different countries. I could probably get away with just email but my friends like using facebook so I use it.

X0d1@k · 04-27-10, 01:16 PM

totally understand what you guys are saying. What bothers me is that these sites are a real haven for data miners. Look at some of the surveys that are on myspace. Where were you born? What is your moms maiden name? What was your first pet? Ok, alot of these questions are also on your bank accounts and credit cards. Coincidence? Ya, im not buying it.

So now, i find this article that suggests that 1 out of 300 facebook accounts have been compromised and could be up for grabs by a single hacker. If i had an account, i might be a little worried.

Archer0915 · 04-27-10, 01:19 PM

As advised by my attorney. Facebook is good for a lot of things but keep the personal information you post to a minimum, it can be used against you. Don't be afraid to tell others your life is off limits as well. I protest when I see my picture on the web. Because although we do have freedom of the press we also have a right to privacy. I have even had heated conversations with my wife about this. I really dont care if she posts a family PIC with me in it but that is it. I also told her what I do is my business and though it is her business by default it is not the business of anyone else.

BobbyBubblehead · 04-27-10, 01:26 PM

Even in a business capacity people are expecting you to get an account now, (note to self... kick attorney in the jewels for losing contact and offering NetLog

)

bet they make it an offense not to have an account in the UK first.

self social profiling tastic

NetLOG

Im Bobby,

my hobbies are terrorism and eating babies

jelly babies `n tourism, sorry!

EDIT: hey Archer if your Attorneys fluent in BG law and cyrillic can I grab there facebook contact?

Archer0915 · 04-27-10, 01:37 PM

He actually is a USAF Academy grad, a law teacher part time and a full time lawyer. I dont think he is into international law.

Well if they make this crap mandatory to live me and some police will move to Alaska with our gunzez and dare them to make us use the web.

BobbyBubblehead · 04-27-10, 01:42 PM

I`ll see your Gunzez and raise you a UN splatting canon

X0d1@k · 04-27-10, 01:48 PM

Data mining is totally what FB is all about. The only reason I have an account is because the folding team has a 'wall' there.

theres more anti gov sites that support the idea there going to push for it to be a standard... takes time to locate, im on it

and yes Archer Ive believed over the past eight years at least things could get sour.

X0d1@k · 04-27-10, 02:07 PM

I just thought of a horrible future where you will be assigned a FB page, and you will have to petition the gov via youtube on problems you may be having at the DMV! Like a grim , the movie "The Island" scenario.

They can take my life, but they will never have my freedom or bacon!!!!!!!

BobbyBubblehead · 04-27-10, 02:22 PM

I feel they like to start on the young with implementing these plans e.g. mobile phones far more capable than erm phoning.

its become the norm but the past decade all little johhny/jenny wants a £300 phone.

theres two ways to implement facebook
no1 they say its for work opertuninty even benefit entitlement
no2 as law to provide a vote system so we all have to play the puppet master game.... two puppets one pair of hands

votings dieing on its arse in the UK because we dont believe anymore

IDK it might be good

Pay a hacker to give you a raise

Did that with an AS400 one time

ALL LEGAL!!!! IT WAS A DEMO OF THE WEAKNESSES I was paid by the CEO of the company and no data was lost, everything was put back in order and most importantly no small animals were hurt.

BobbyBubblehead · 04-27-10, 02:39 PM

I snap chickens necks and eat them.... does that make me a bad person?

guess if there born in a supermarket package its still ok to eat them

(yes I was being pointless)

@ archer I sabotaged the exam results of certain pupils at school, that wasnt legal but hillarious to see the trouble they got into #Laughs# (wonder if there on FB?)

That is a little diffrent. Here in the US though we dont have anything like that many services are available online.

I guess they will make sure to give every citizen a computer and web access for free.
