To write again ...

Facebook's privacy policy is longer than the American constitution. Say what? I read this article the other day and quite frankly, I often don't see what the fuss is about. I don't understand the need to STAY that private. I have friends who refuse to get on Facebook or any other social networking site because they're so worried that their information will be compromised. Fair enough. But for those who are on there - get over yourselves maybe?
What do you not want to disclose? Your location? Your pictures? Your religious beliefs? Your relationship status? Your year of birth? ;) I bet that's the one. For me, the only thing I have wanted to keep private is pictures of me taken at bad angles, the ones where you can see my double chin or my acne or, worst-case-scenario, both!!! It's just that.
I mean, what is it really? Are you in the frekkin secret service? I remember they made it a big deal in the army once - officers on social networking sites - posting pictures of themselves standing next to their tanks or fighter planes - disclosing their locations - Lohegaon, Bhatinda, Pathankot. Maybe we don't want the bad guys to know that we've got MiG 29s at so-and-so location and something else at another. But really, I don't think military intelligence the world over, goes looking on social networking sites for such information. But then again, who knows?
I, for one, love Facebook and am not afraid of the loopholes in their privacy policy. If I really want to keep something private, I won't feel the need to put it on there in the first place. And that's what the article says -'The only way to disappear from those topic pages is to delete personal data from Facebook....' Do that, and shut the fuck up.
In other news, I know something very exciting but I can't write about it. It's about a great book being movie-fied and my cousin playing the lead role! What what? Yes!
