I am another one who will not join Facebook, and after I saw a doco and a report on Anderson Cooper 360 a few weeks back I know I never will.
Facebook right now is sharing the photos people put as their profile on other websites and does not have to get the permission of the account holder, as Facebook now owns that photograph, even if deleted Facebook still have it.
Facebook knows where you go on line and even worse if other sites have that like button, that helps them to find out stuff about you, what you search for, what you look at.
They also help government find people, but then Google does that as well.
So who knows where else they can go on your computer there was a story in the Melbourne paper the Herald Sun a guy who found out facebook were storing cookies on his computer, and he made Facebook aware this was happening, apparently they did not know.
And the scariest of all those of us who do not have accounts, even if we have been directed to someone's page and may have browsed before being asked to sign in, sign up Facebook knows all about us as well.
It stands to reason it may find details of someone you sent an email five years ago is also on Facebook and sends you the friend link.
At the end of the day it is a business, a big business that will always be trying to find new ways to keep itself ahead of everyone else.
And this is what we do know, imagine what is going on we don't even know about?!
