Dr. Charles Norris User ID: 32805549 United States 01/22/2013 05:54 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My wife brought this to my attention last night. She at first noticed that her password for FB did not work anymore, so she went through the normal reset procedures. She created a new PW and when she logged in she got a message that states she has to provide a photo ID to validate her identity! At first i was thinking she has some malware infection with a browser hijack, but to my suprise when i went to log into my account i had to go through the same steps. I will never submit a photo ID to FB or anyone to use a web service..ever!

DelfI User ID: 1200804 United States 01/22/2013 06:07 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Hubby's been out of town and when he got home last friday, he had to log in and they told him he was using an unidentified computer, (it's the same one he's had for a year or more) and they made him identify his Friends! They put up pics from their picture pages, not their profile picture and he couldn't identify them all. They threw pics at him until he identified enough. I gave him a ton of s#!@ for id'ing them. but I thought it was some kind of virus or something. this is scarier. |

From day 1 I saw this coming and was laughed at by my circle of friends as I was the only one not to have an account. Who's laughing now? But most don't care.. "because I have nothing to hide" is what I hear. That's not the point, I tell them. All on deaf ears. The Worshipful Company of Information Technologists can take a long walk off a short pier with this one. Everyone should spread this information like wild fire. Facebook is a CIA tool.. Facebook Is a CIA/NSA Information Gathering Tool So now the question is?? Why are you on Facebook? |

Like I would show them my credit card, birth cert or any of that info they want? Wonder how many idiots gave them that info? ;( Buckets of people will just hand it over. I checked this out, apparently it is not complete BS. I'm torn. I may just start letting my FB friends (who I all actually KNOW in person - we're just geographically distant now), that I'm leaving FB and I'll start updated my email address contacts again. — read for knowledge, not answers. |

Scribbler User ID: 4388957 United States 01/22/2013 07:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Wife of Scribbler, just to differentiate and not speak for my hub (I hate to sign him out). here are a couple of things I found looking around. A fb FAQ That said they require users to register using real names, and will attempt to id and delete fake accounts. they might need to ask for a photo id if your account gets suspended to insure that you are who you say you are. and then an online article from Nov. '10 stating "Facebook bug locks out Users, demands photo id..." [link to ocunwired.blog.ocregister.com] I wrestle with whether or not to keep my Fedsbook account open, so far the convenience of being able to keep connected to my many distant friends and family has won out. I do know that it's also a tool for the government "authorities" AND yes, even the corporate ptb to spy and keep tabs and attempt to control people. I like my privacy but it's not like I'm anyone they have an interest in. As a matter of fact they don't give a fuck about most of us individually, they just want to profit by us. The obvious lack of caring and notice is probably a large part of why some people get all bonkers and do drastic (and drastically stupid) things to get their attention.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 32822335 United States 01/22/2013 07:31 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Everybody who's over 35 and joined Fakebook should be branded as an idiot of significant measure. Youth has its follies, and they don't yet know enough about the world, governments and especially History, so joining by them is understandable and excusable. Those of us, who really understand what's going on, why and by who, stayed away from Fakebook as far as we could get. |
