   I was feeling rather isolated and too busy with school to have many friends and a friend suggested FACEBOOK.

   I thought it was a great idea although I thought that there seemed to be some quirks.

   The idea of facebook is to see how many "friends" you can add and I found some great ones.

   Problem is, when you have to add friends, you are required to type  two nonsense syllables before they will permit you to ask this person to become a friend. If you do not want to keep typing these syllables, you have to give up your phone number. AND WHAT HAPPENS TO THIS PHONE NUMBER? I don't know. I suspect it gets sold to a telephone solicitation company. I don't know but when I didn't give it up, I didn't make any friends with the Facebook people, I AM SURE.

   Likewise, they want your date of birth, every place you have ever worked and gone to school, your home address and everywhere you can be contacted. WHY DO THEY WANT THAT? WHO WILL SEE IT? WHAT WILL IT BE USED FOR?

   NOT IN MY LIFE TIME,FACEBOOK!

   So you continue and if you should happen to type "too fast," you will get a hateful reminder that you are engaged in OFFENSIVE and UNWANTED conduct --- FOR POSTING TO MY FRIENDS ON MY OWN FACEBOOK PAGE???? AND THEY CAN AND WILL BLOCK ALL POSTS AND ANYONE THAT YOU CONTACT!
   
That is when you learn that FACEBOOK is controlled by a GIANT BOT or  a ROBOTIC program and it apparently is monitoring EVERYTHING YOU DO. Which is why I am glad I log into it with Startpage.com which guarantees your privacy.
   
I am NOT into posting profanity and obscenity or anything illegal on my facebook page. In fact, I just want to read the news and keep up with economics and monitor some Bills in the Congress so I can lobby against at least three of them.
   
And I am starting to wonder why some people are permitted to post any thing they want and when I try to respond by making a "comment," I am being constantly blocked. They went so far as to even block me from a one on one "chat."
   
WHY?
   
Probably because I used the Ghostery Program by firefox that enabled me to detect  up to eight different  what appeared to be spyware programs and possibly the new WORM, Conflicter. It varied.

    They encourage you to take inane, barely literate online quizzes. I saw the spyware and tracker programs pop up almost as fast as I blocked one, here would be another. Then  after you had wasted your time with this nonsense, it would ask you to forward your results and or a copy of the quiz to your facebook friends. What do you want to bet that what you would ALSO be forwarding on to them would be a LOT of hidden tracker and malware and spyware as well. I REFUSED TO GO ALONG WITH THAT AND THEY WERE MAD ABOUT THAT, NO DOUBT.

   At times, something would take hold of my cursor and even when I pushed the "Esc" key, I could not get my mouse to move my cursor correctly or even at all, not even my keyboard controls would work. WHOEVER FACEBOOK HAS HACKING INTO YOUR PAGE AND CONTROLLING YOUR COMPUTER REMOTELY WHILE YOU ARE ON THEIR SITE, THEY ARE GOOD! I HAD TO SHUT DOWN AND REBOOT.

   I have to admit I never met a bunch of nicer people online. I really enjoyed them. My cousin died while he was on duty recently and it helped me not to be so lonely.
   THAT WAS WHY I WAS VERY ANGRY WHEN WITH NO WARNING, THE d**n BOT THAT CONTROLS THE FACEBOOK POSTINGS WOULD STOP ME FROM COMMENTING FOR NO REASON.  I guess it was made because I blocked all the tracker and malware that they had.

    I ALSO NOTICED THAT AFTER I HAD ACCESSED THE FACEBOOK PAGE, THERE WAS A REMOTE ASSISTANCE ICON THAT SUDDENLY BECAME VISIBLE ON MY CONTROL PANEL that I could not shut and I imagine that someone or something related to FACE BOOK had attempted to enter my entire computer system and find out what and to whom I was corresponding to -- like a vacumn cleaner. I HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING WHETHER THEY DID OR NOT.

    I wish I had looked this up before I jumped in.

    I did look it up and this is what it said in the ever-trusty wikipedia:
 

"Mark Zuckerberg founded Facebook with his roommates and fellow computer science students Eduardo Saverin, Dustin Moskovitz and Chris Hughes while he was a student at Harvard University.The website's membership was initially limited to Harvard students, but was expanded to other colleges in the Boston area, the Ivy League, and Stanford University. It later expanded further to include any university student, then high school students, and, finally, to anyone aged 13 and over. The website currently has more than 250 million active users worldwide."


It was founded by elitists and YUPPIES. That explains some of it. Harvard is not noted for their down to earth ability to relate to us common folks not their conservative political philosophy.


In other words, a way for the elite to while away their time while they were marking time waiting to inherit their parents' money  or other favored social status in life.


I managed to add several friends who had told me that their sites had been shut down on facebook for NO APPARENT REASON. AND THERE WAS NO APPEAL. NO ONE YOU COULD CONTACT. I was becoming concerned now.


I looked at some photos of some of  WHAT WERE ALLEGEDLY their employees under their EMPLOYMENT/ COMPANY designation and I would be afraid to wait at the bus stop with those people.


Maybe it is a generation problem although I am rather computer savvy.


You can not comment more than a few lines because it is apparently designed for VALLEY GIRLS with a vocabulary of monsyllables only. The kind of idiots who text while driving and kill other people and don't have a clue. THOSE kind of people.


IT GOT SO BAD AND SO CAPRICIOUS THAT I NEVER KNEW WHEN WHAT I TRIED TO WRITE WOULD BE BANNED, I WOULD BE PREVENTED FROM CHATTING WITH MY FRIENDS. I NEVER KNEW WHAT TO EXPECT AND WHAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN A GREAT EXPERIENCE TURNED INTO A HELL!


I NEVER TRIED TO POST A MESSAGE ON ANYONE ELSE'S PAGE EITHER --JUST MY OWN!


THIS MORNING AFTER THREE OF THE MOST INTERESTING WEEKS I EVER SPENT, AND TWO OF THOSE BEING PROHIBITED FROM POSTING ANYTHING ON MY OWN PAGE --NOT EVER WEATHER FORECASTS OR CIVIL GREETINGS OR THE USUAL PLEASANTRIES THAT ARE EXCHANGED IN POLITE SOCIETY, I LEARNED THAT MY FACEBOOK PAGE HAD BEEN DISABLED. NO EXPLANATION.


DISAPPEARED. WHO KNOWS WHERE IT WENT.


EVEN THE ONLINE GAME I ENJOYED PLAYING WENT WITH IT! IT WAS ALSO CROOKED. WITH THINGS THAT YOU HAD ALLEGEDLY EARNED VANISHING AND EVENT TIMERS NOT WORKING OR BEING DELIBERATELY SLOW. ALL BECAUSE I HAD BLOCKED THE MALWARE,SPYWEAR AND TRACKER PROGRAMS ON THOSE PAGES.


IT IS I THE DAMNED QUIZZES AND IT IS ALSO IN THE GAMES. ALL OVER THEIR SITE.


I THINK THEY GAVE ME THE KONFLIKTER WORM VIRUS AS WELL SO I WILL HAVE TO TAKE THIS COMPUTER APART AND REPAIR IT.


THERE IS A NOTE THAT SAYS THEY DON'T HAVE TO GIVE YOU AN EXPLANATION WHEN YOU TRY TO FIND OUT THE EXACT REASON THAT THEY HAVE DISABLED YOUR PAGE.


I AM AFRAID TO GO BACK AND TRY IT AGAIN BECAUSE OF THE CREEPY UNHUMAN BOT PROGRAM  THAT IS SO WEIRD AND TOTALLY DEVOID OF ANY HUMAN LOGIC OR REASON.


I looked at the photo of the founder of Facebook in the Wikipedia article and he reminded me of Michael Dell, another Khazar guy.  This kid would probably have been old enough to have been my son --but I hope I would have brought my son up to be more mature, compassion, courteous and a lot smarter than to try easily detectable spyware, MALWARE WORMS, programs that attempt to seize control of a computer to access all the data in there.


THIS IS A SITE THAT CLAIMS TO BE A PLACE FOR PEOPLE TO NETWORK AND TALK TO EACH OTHER AND MAKE FRIENDS BUT IT IS A RIP-OFF TO TRY AND GET YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION FOR NEFARIOUS REASONS I GUESS --I DON'T KNOW!


NOW YOU KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT IF YOU BELIEVE THE HYPE AND THINK YOU WILL MAKE FRIENDS THERE. THEY TREATED ME LIKE DISPOSABLE GARBAGE.


I THINK I SHOULD HAVE SEEN THE PHOTO OF THE SMUG BOOKSMART AND STREETSTUPID KID WHO FOUNDED IT BEFORE I EVER TRIED TO SIGN UP FOR IT


ANOTHER SOMETHING I THOUGHT WOULD BE NICE ON THE INTERNET TURNED OUT TO BE A MALEVOLENT, SORRY NO-GOOD RIP-OFF.


IT IS LIKE CHINESE TORTURE, NEVER KNOWING WHEN YOU WILL BE CUT OFF FROM YOUR FRIENDS.

FACEBOOK WARS

AUTHOR: Joe - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Wednesday, September 15, 2010

EVERY TIME I TRY TO ACCESS FACEBOOK, I END UP WITH TECHNICAL PROBLEMS ON MY LAPTOP COMPUTER.

MY CUT AND PASTE FUNCTIONS WILL NO LONGER WORK ON ANY SITE I GO TO, MY SPEED SLOWS DOWN TO A CRAWL AND I GET REDIRECTED FROM MANY WEB  SITES I WANT TO SEE -- AND THESE ARE JUST PLAIN RESEARCH SITES, NO XXX.

SOMEHOW, I CAN NO LONGER ACCESS ANY OF MY E-MAIL ACCOUNTS WHICH I NEVER LISTED ON FACEBOOK AND I HAVE COME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT SOMEONE TRACKED ME AND HACKED MY E-MAIL ACCOUNTS...TOO BAD THERE IS NOTHING IN THEM THAT THEY CAN USE BECAUSE I DO NOT DO BUSINESS ON LINE. I USE CASH. CASH IS KING.

I HAVE ALREADY HAD ONE PAGE BLOCKED BECAUSE I OPPOSED THE "OBAMA HEALTHCARE BIL" --THE SAME ONE THAT GERMANY ADOPTED IN 1933 WHICH WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THE FINAL SOLUTION ---AND ELIMINATION OF JEWS. GYPSIES, SLAVIC PEOPLES AND BLACK PEOPLE WAS JUST PART OF THAT...

NOW, IT LOOKS LIKE I WILL LOSE ANOTHER PAGE AFTER I CHANGED INTERNET SERVICES PROVIDES.

SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH FACEBOOK.
