http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/38463013/ns/technology_and_science/?GT1=43001Man from PirateBay gathered all public info on FB and puts it in a single flie. How do you think this will affect FB and the internet?

Quote from Shomzar: "BTS is the dad, EG is the mom, aer is the zanny uncle, and everyone else are the kids"
I tend to speak like those around be me if I don't stop and make myself me. Don't let yourself be someone else. You are who you are for a reason and nothing can change that. You control what is going to happen to you and only you can make sure of the best. |

I've read the article and in my opinion what that guy did isn't very different from what google spiders do every freaking day! So I have to quote: ... but it a good example why facebook isn't good

well the program to gather data is easy to make that its freaking disturbing.
Ya google does things like that every day ... as do all the other search engines.
Some virusses do that aswell.

I think they are freaking out because this is a sample. They could do worse ... like they could take adresses and other personal data and gather it ... and emai ladresses for spammer, and other data for scammers and hustlers |
