My DoB, schools attended, email, phone and work history are not included. Nor do I join any of their apps. No farms, gifts, silly polls or questions because all of that has a way of getting to advertisers as well as increasing the odds of getting your site hacked into. (Do a google search on Facebook and you will see how people were scammed out of money, or how their pics are used in promotions without their knowledge.)<br /><br />I also limit my page to family and close friends. I have only one friend from work because like at work, things have a way of becoming public. Facebook and the like is not the best venue for posting complaints and emotions.<br />Employers do find a way of getting in even if the page is restricted and many people have either been fired or not hired. So yes a boss can do something to stop it.<br /><br />Your friend took a gamble when she wrote about work. There is nothing private about Facebook.Schoolgalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02327692336247705060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29536003.post-49735691106800342572009-10-10T18:41:48.740-04:002009-10-10T18:41:48.740-04:00I do facebook to keep some idea of what my daughte...I do facebook to keep some idea of what my daughter posts.<br /><br />I had no sooner joined than an old boy friend found me (more than 30 yrs ago BF) and I was found by a NYC police detective that my girls sent stuff to after 9/11 (he led a BS troop, we were GS and helped us be useful). I have also found quite a few of my husband's cousins after his mother died.<br /><br />I only post mu problems, complaints, bitches and kvetches under Ricochet - and not even all of them.<br /><br />I am amazed at what people are willing to post in what is a very public forum.Ricochethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12594506449363717006noreply@blogger.com
