“I have NEVER used my real stats. “

The most important thing to NOT give anyone is your real birthday. That and your social is almost all that is needed for identity theft these days. I usually use 1/1 or 4/1. Got a kick when some of my FB “friends” sent me happy birthdays on 1/1. One of my smarter friends said she didn’t think I was a new year’s baby, or she would have remembered that.

The really sad thing is all these young kids that display their entire lives on FB, including all the invasive apps and such that result from the “like” crap.

I’ve seen this Obama Ad thing happen when people get tricked by FB into installing a FB plugin into their browser. The FB plugin was the source of the ads.

Just FB or all Social Media? Linkedin? Twitter?

LinkedIn, probably not Eighth Commandment free but still has the codependent tendencies, though not with pictures of “look at my dinner”.

Twitter definitely on all counts.l

People who post photos of their dinner quickly get blocked from most people’s scrolls because they are boring. FB is a great way to do a whole bunch of useful things including keeping in touch with friends and family who are overseas.
