The list of grievance are numerous. I will list some here and I request that anyone who reads this please add
a comment below as to your negative experiences with Facebook.
I will add all comments to my future posting of this article on other sites. I request that you copy this article
and repost it everywhere.
So here goes.
The more popular a Facebook member is in relationship to democratic values and activities, the more
Facebook will interfere with that and every other users rights and freedoms.
Facebook actively interferes with an individuals ability to grow their friends list as needed.
Facebook has put on an arbitrary cap or limit on users ability to have as many friends as they want.
I receive daily friend request that I always accept and as I receive these I am presented with an option to
send a friend request to four other people who may be on the original friend requesters list of friends that
may have like interests as I.
So I send them a friend request. Now facebook opens up a pop up window that basically says "'Do you
know this person? If not your friend request will be viewed as spam" Facebook is truely NUTS.
Facebook also claims that it provides users the ability to only accept requests from friends. How would that
be possible? It is impossible and it is not true. There is no means to do that.
Then Facebook says that it provides existing members a means to notify Facebook that a member considers
a friend request as spam. Again that is not true. There is no means to claim that a friend request is spam.
To prove this is very easy. Facebook provides no means for anyone from the public to send Facebook a
message.
Go check it out. Go to Facebook and see if you can find anyway to communicate your grievances with those
that control and administer Facebook.
You will discover that it is impossible to contact Facebook unless Facebook chooses to provide you a
limited means to do so somewhere hidden in the functions of Facebook.
Spam can only be spam if a spammer repeatedly sends messages to the same person that does not want
those messages. So on Facebook if I click to send a friend request. I can only do that once for an individual.
Plus I have no means to send any message with that friend request.
How can one friend request be spam? Again it can not be spam.
But maybe Facebook is doing the spamming, since Facebook is the one that provides me with the option to
send friend requests to individuals I have yet not met.
So lets say I have sent someone a friend request in the past and they refused it. How am I to know that
Facebook is not continually providing the same friend request choices?
How would I know if I sent that individual a friend request before? I would not know as people often
change their profile pictures.
Also Facebook provides me with no notifications of anyone refusing any of my friend requests. At present
no hone as ever told me that they do not want my friend requests.
If an individual receives more then one friend request from me then that would be deliberately done by
Facebook. As Facebooks software would of automatically kept that info in its database and therefore should
of never again provided me with that suggestion of sending that person a friend request.
Oh and Facebook neglects to mention that I am continuously receiving message of thanks and gratitude
from people who are so pleased that I have added them as a friend and that they are very pleased to have
discovered me, A Truth Soldier.
Is Facebook completely nuts? How can a friend request be considered spam? Spam has to contain some
kind of text and writing, does it not?
How could my using the very feature that Facebook itself provides and created as spam?
So then using Facebooks own reasoning, Facebook is the one that created the spamming means and
Facebook is actually the one that is forwarding what they call spam.. So then according to Facebooks own
thinking, Facebook is the one that is spamming?
Hey on the topic of spamming. Now Facebook lets anyone add me to their Facebook groups and I
then get my email flooded with none stop unwanted messages. Until I have to go to the Facebook
anted emails. Then I have to waste
group that I did not join and edit the settings to stop all the unw
unwanted
more time cleaning up my email in box of all the spamming from Facebook.
If Facebook did not want people to send friend request then why are they operating their site?
So can anyone tell me how anyone can meet new friends in the virtual world of Facebook if not by sending
out friend requests?
Am I to believe that Facebook can not understand this? Of course not.
So lets consider the fact that Facebook is a digital virtual community. How would anyone make new friends
other then by sending them a friend request to introduce myself with.
How would anyone make new friends from all over the world without first sending them a friend request?
Facebook blocks anyone from asking popular members who are public figures, activists, news makers,
bloggers and writers etc from asking them for a friend request.
Facebook has no legal right to interfere in anyones ability to meet and make new friends based on common
interests.
After all is that not how someone makes new friends? Based on common interests.
I will now explain to you the important significance and need to add friends on Facebook.
Unlike all other community sites on the Internet, anyone who is a member of Facebook has their profile page
and all of their other pages blocked from being viewed by anyone on the Internet unless you are on that
individuals friend list.
Even if, like I, one has set up their profile to be viewable to the public without having to be on my friends
list.
Facebook blocks my profile page from being viewed by anyone.
Facebook is deliberately interfering in it users ability to freely communicate with anyone they choose to.
The problems with Facebook interfering with the democratic process does not end there.
Over time Facebook has made an individuals profile page completely blank of any of that individual
members meaningful personal content.
A member can not post their own blog posts, pictures or anything else to their side bar. And on the side bar
there is links to photos, notes etc but now these links make it appear as though there is no content there to be
viewed.
Lets say I write a note or blog message. I can not even post it on the front of my own profile page. Unless I
post it on some other site and then share it to my Facebook account.
Facebook even blocks me from posting any new personal messages directly to my own front page so I can
communicate with all my friends at the same time.
And now there is a banner across the top of my profile page that shows other peoples photos and not mine.
Facebook is nothing more then a place where they spy on individuals very personal lives.
Take notice that Facebook sells all content on its site to information data mining companies. Anything you
have ever posted in Facebook is now in an information data bank for ever. And will be sold to anyone at
anytime for a profit.
Once you expose your personal relations, thoughts and private pictures to Facebook, you are exposing
yourself to unlimited possibilities of invasion and subversion of your rights and liberties for the rest of your
life.
Even if you terminate your Facebook account..
I think all parents should truely keep their children off Facebook.
I think everyone should use Facebook for only general public relations and not private ones.
But Facebook does not want that and are doing everything they can to block that.
They only want your private information so they can profit from it.
Hey everyone please send me all your friend request as Facebook is now threatening to shut down my
profile for sending out friend requests. So I can no longer send out friend requests. At present that privilege
has been blocked by Facebook. Just type Daniel J Towsey in Facebooks search to find my profile or click
the link at the top of this page.
PLEASE COPY THIS AND REPOST IT EVERYWHERE AND SHARE IT ESPECIALLY ON
