73. Never been to facebook, where is it?

Secret hint: the more you prostrate yourself the more likely that your going to get it where it hurts

I said eff that crap the first time I ever had heard of it. Why would you let some web-site control so much about who you are just so you have some so called friends see what's up about you?

To top that off the OP is even giving up more to them with ultimatums and begging them to change, that's weak.

Would you please cite the source of the Cambridge Analytics use? Otherwise, it's an unfounded claim ancianita Feb 2017 #15

Facebook changed their settings. And a lot of the data is taken doing quizzes. KittyWampus Feb 2017 #16
