Well I've got both right now. Mostly Google+ is a novelty for me...and I can access it from work (they have facebook blocked but haven't caught on to Google+ yet)

Also, FB is changing their privacy policy yet again. Before, information about you could only be stored for 24 hours, then all those apps you've authorized would have to re-download. Now, if you decide to put, say, your home address into your profile and then 10 seconds later think "no, actually that's not a good idea," too bad. It's already too late, and everyone who got that information from your profile (all those apps again, plus Facebook advertisers in general, have your information and they can keep it forever. It will no longer matter what changes you make to your privacy settings, if a piece of information was public for even a second, it's available to anyone who wants to purchase it, forever. Which is why I'm deleting my account before they get to me in the rollout.

Yep, Facebook. A lot of people seem to forget that if you're not paying for a service, but the service is making a lot of money, then you are the product being sold. The same is true of Google+, which obviously isn't perfect, but far less invasive than Facebook.

My neice just became a licensed private detective after many years in the insurance claims industry. She decided to put her skills into a means to retire from working for a huge workers comp corporation and work for herself. She showed me the spyware available and just how easy getting information on all of us is just via the internet. From cell phone numbers (oh, you thought these could not be reversed for address, or your tower pings gps coordinates not followed unless by police?), to really very scary access to medical records, including mental health records. Yes, some of these programs require investigative credentials and licensing to aquire- but we all know about black markets, right? Things like sealed records, forget it!! Want to know the details of someones divorce decree? You can get that. Want a list of presciptions someone takes, no problem. Crazy scary!!! |

Yeah I've been toying with deleting my FB account for some time now... especially when I clicked a few things and found my entire contact list from my Blackberry... friends, family yada yada.
And... so... since I have quite a few of you here in this thread there, if I go poof from your friends list just know I didn't un-friend you... =)

I asked b/c I read an article that included comments from people. It was that day they did whatever the latest change is that everyone hates. Anyway, people in the comments section were talking about ditching FB and switching to Google+
