Money talks and when you get people wanting to get return on their money they have invested information will be sold to make this money. Yes I have a farce book account but without a photo and if I do put one up (they do keep asking for one) it will be of the dog, and my date of birth isn't correct as it is the first day of the month as I never trust sites like this with my information.
I want in on the coming class action lawsuit. May be a good time to dump Facebook stock if you own any.

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Three users of the Facebook Messenger app sued Facebook <FB.O> on Tuesday, saying the social network violated their privacy by collecting logs of their phone calls and text messages, in the latest legal challenge facing the company.
The U.S. lawsuit filed in federal court in the Northern District of California seeks status as a class action on behalf of all affected users and asks for unspecified damages.
A Facebook representative could not immediately be reached for comment.
Facebook, which is reeling from a scandal over its handling of personal data, on Sunday acknowledged that it had been logging some users' call and text history but said it had done so only when users of the Android operating system had opted in.
Facebook said on Sunday that it does not collect the content of calls or text messages, and that information is securely stored. The data is not sold to third parties, it said.
Android is owned by Alphabet Inc's Google <GOOGL.O>, which is not named as a defendant in the suit.
I struggle to see what else people expected to happen by integrating themselves into the web and anybody who guarantees your security is a liar. Buyer beware.

It's like they say: If you ain't paying for the product, you are the product.
