Some of you here and on MAD were friends with me on Facebook. I'm just letting you know that you haven't been singled out. I deleted my Facebook account.

All is well with me, KA, but I don't think all is well on Facebook. Privacy issues.

Agreed. I actually lied about the birthday on Facebook. I assume that my friends know when it really is. Cross-site scripting attacks could give up too much information much too easily. As for where I live or who I'm married to, I'm not as worried--you can find that information easily in the phone book if you know my real name.
That's General Leo. He could be my friend if he weren't my enemy.

I always felt a bit uneasy about privacy issues while on Facebook but let those feelings go. Yesterday I received a notification and opened it to find some gross innuendo about my friends on Facebook. One of them may well have initiated it, I suppose, but I didn't find it funny. It referred to the sexuality of one member, asking whether "Do you think such and such does....." (describes sexual act). They clearly knew lots of personal information about the backgrounds and sexual orientation of members. I only got to three such questions/allegations about three people, and I immediately deleted my account. I don't need that kind of "humour" and gossip about who bonks who, or who might be bonking who.

I'd really like to know who did this. I'm not accusing anyone, because I have no evidence. I think it could have been a Mormon, or an ex-Mormon. My non-Mormon friends and relatives, whom I've now lost contact with, would never do something like this, and they know no one in Mormon-related circles.

I've made a report to Facebook, but I don't expect it will be followed up, because justice is a thing of the past.

Whoever did this, you know who you are, and if I find out who you are, I will do all I can go get you banned not only from Facebook, but every site on the Internet I can, because you are low-life SCUM.

Don't you know which "friend" sent you the notification or notifications?

And can't you just delete them as friends and if they wrote on your Facebook page, delete what they wrote?

That's what I find confusing as well. I don't have a Facebook account. I have a MySpace. But on MySpace, you always know which friend sent you the notification.
