yeah I mean, if they wanna screw you, they'll do it anyway, facebook or no facebook. I dont wanna live my life in fear or to make my life miserable (or limiting myself) by constantly trying to protect myself from Big Brother. Living in paranoia is no quality life.



Shaks - Very well said. It is crazy of all the conspiracy theories out there. Honestly, I have stopped listening ....because like Shaks said ....living in fear and paranoia is no quality of life. The last theory I heard of was the CIA killed Michael Jackson .......I mean c'mon ....really—?

It is easy to get wrapped up on big brother watching us ....if they are ....who cares? I have nothing to hide. If big brother wants to stalk me on facebook and know what song describes my life, what I do day to day ....so be it. I have better things to do ....like living my life.

I have heard of some people not getting jobs or getting into trouble at school because of what they put on their social networking sites BUT I'm guessing if you are 15 and you post pictures of yourself holding a half gone bottle of Jack with the caption that says "I'm wasted" your kinda asking for it. Same applies with trying to get a job when you've plastered pics of yourself on the internet snorting a line or something like that.
I'm with PD. I have nothing to hide. Look all you want. Even for a Scorp... I'm not THAT paranoid.

We have ordinary people (like us) and we have extra ordinary people like the person in the article.

He is title bearer man like —Sir?? which in terms his woman has a title as —Lady?? in monarchy system and a Lady shouldn't do this kind of stuff in respect to her own and her husband??s title.

And what I have said is not about paranoia, everybody knows that the internet is FRINGE and should be very careful for what to say or do online, it is not as free as it was before.

Predators are everywhere both online and offline.

^^^^
Udg - Now what would be the motive— Last album was a flop— See what I mean how crazy it sounds? Is it possible ....well yeah .....it is also possible that he really had an addiction to pain medication and over medicated. I have to agree with you MJ media has been wayyyy over the top. I swear the media was obsessed by him when he was alive ....and they are still obsessed. Poor MJ .....he cannot even die in peace. 😢 I feel terrible for his children. They cannot even mourn in peace with the frenzy about their wellcare all over the internet and TV.

Q - You got a good point about.... "us ordinary ppl". I will admit I spent a good amount of time looking at all the conspiracy theories and I finally had to simply stop reading them with a full heart because than I begin to loose hope about humanity and about my own future. I just cannot invest all that emotional and mental energy on them any more because it begins to be counter-productive. If the conspirators are going to do all this bad stuff to us ...they are going to do it with or without my knowledge. I am buying into the motto 'Ignorance is bliss'. 🙂 I am just starting to notice a pattern .....there is a conspiracy on just about everything. I am also noticing the energy that these conspiracy theories create on the human psyche of ppl that follow them and believe every one of them. I will not lie there are a few that I whole heartedly believe *coughs* 911 twin towers.

Q - I have not read your post but I must ask what is your opinion on the Iran elections?

Be well all! 🙂

Hehehe^^ That reminds me of when people here were all in an uproar over the government spying on phone convos. LOL I didn't get what the fuss was about. There'd be times when I was talking on the phone and the other person would mention wondering if we were being listened in on so I'd breathe heavy and moan into the phone asking if "Mr. Spyguy" liked it when I talked dirty. Hehehehe. 😛

Facebook is just a bit of fun, and for people to connect, have a laugh etc etc

However, im sure that there "Are" people out there who use it for more sinister purposes.
Lots of "Managers" use it to spy on their staff and see what theyre up too.....

The way to protect yourself is easy...
Be very careful who you allow on to your "Friends List"
If u dont know them that well, Dont Accept their request.
AND
Make your profile private 🙂

Well my facebook I keep in contact with friends I dont see on a weekly basis and some are in different countries. Yes it does pay to set it to private and only open to those on invitation. I dont except anyone I dont know and have had a few random requests.

As for the phone tapping Ging, it really is quite scary not that anyone would find anything interesting in me gossiping to my friends but more for cheating spouses and political parties etc. They can track where you are if your phone has GPS and even be able to read texts you have sent!!! What blew me away was when the phone was just siting on the desk and these two guys were just having a meeting and all the person had to do was dial the mobile number and he could listen in to their whole meeting!!! The software is available online! It's big news here att he moment but they are only focusing on celebs & politicians privacy.

Q - I have not read your post but I must ask what is your opinion on the Iran elections?

Sabotaged by the western media and the US/British/French and Israelite secret services remember that % 90 of the world Oil run through the Persian gulf so it is easy to find out who is behind this crap.




Weird thing Q .....when I started seeing this all over the media ......I thought the EXACT same thing you just posted. I am just someone who is observant of the patterns of how politics and media play with the control of our minds and opinions. I don't trust ANYTHING that the meida puts out there.

Wishing the Iranian people peaceful resolution.

My experience with Facebook has been a positive one...

I never had many friends, then i created a profile, and thru the very few people i did know, added their friends (who i met in the flesh)
and now, thru my convo's and threads I have people adding me.
I surprised myself the other day, I have 88 friends on my profile and when i went thru them I realised I actually, personally know 71 of them 🙂
I meet them all regularly at various times and locations.
And the other 17 most of whom are overseas, I also regularly chat with 🙂
