I actually went back into Fa$ebook recently, after boycotting it for quite sometime. Frankly they are no better or worse then gargle, M$, Crapple or any other company that wants to know all about our habits so they can make money off of us.

The key as always is to be aware of what they do and how they do it.

Only you can protect your information, because no-one will do it for you.

Seriously? Do you have any links?

I never used facebook, but one thing I must say "It is not a proper time to quit, one should stand with them at this time for the reason of protecting Freedom of expression".

I quit , too many security problems and the muslim thing were enought to push me past my tolerance point.

Ha I'm the generation thats said to be addicted to Facebook but I quit their site too. It had to do with the realization that alot of time in my life was spent posting on that damned site! When I die, would I regret not posting more inane crap on that stupid site, or would I regret not hiking the beautiful Colorado mountains out my door? If you quit dont be surprised if people think youre mentally ill or depressed. Now any time not used for school I use to blog and I limit that to only an hour a day and only on political issues. No more 5 hours spent aimlessly perusing profiles! YAY!

I read in a news article that Facebook removed the page themselves after Facebook was boycotted and banned from Pakistan by court-order or something.

I thought the everybody draw muhammed day was removed by the people who started the group because the "day" was over. There are quite a few fan pages and groups left with the cartoons. Either way, religion deserves continuous ridicule and scorn by educated, intelligent, and civilized people.

Facebook does cave to Islam. I know several people whose profiles were deleted b/c Muslims didnt' like what they had to say. OKcupid has also censored things about Islam, while not censoring the equivalents about Christianity.

@Tom Thompson: I assume he means how they removed the "Mohammad Day" facebook group.

@Aaron: Do what you need to do, and good for you for doing it!

Me, I'm hopelessly addicted to facebook.. I hope Atheist Nexus grows bigger though, I find it moves a little slow for me information-wise. I'm used to a much faster paced social network.
