Bet you didn't know about this one? Yep ... you can make your profile private ... but ONLY IF YOU KNOW IT'S THERE in the first place. Which most of us didn't. AND you may be picked up by Google if you have an unusual screen name and find yoursself and your comments all over the Internet.

How did that profile get there? Sneaky sneaky AOL ..... when they ask for your email address for "confirmation" ... they automatically set up that profile and the DON'T TELL YOU about it. I found mine by accident when I suddenly appeared all over the Internet. BEWARE ...... this is not fair.

AOL please shape up. Either inform us of the profile AND set it to "private" by default .... or better still, scrap the damned thing entirely. Waiting for a lawsuit on this one?????? ]]>Jul 9th 2010 7:34PMhttp://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/http://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/
Is that too long for today's attention span?

I really don't understand your problem here. I don't even use FB much, but why would i leave it when a few simple minutes can ensure my privacy?]]>May 17th 2010 7:43PMhttp://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/http://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/May 18th 2010 10:07AMhttp://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/http://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/]]>May 18th 2010 8:31AMhttp://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/http://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/
Grow up, get over it! If you're an individual who is worried about FB security, DON'T USE IT!

Good god!]]>Jun 14th 2010 7:01PMhttp://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/http://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/Aug 21st 2010 1:54AMhttp://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/http://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/Hiding the profile requires and intricate navigation of the system and facebook pushes questions and emotional heart strung resistance saying your friends will miss you if you leave... manipulation to young minds for Zuckerbergs ego.
Close your account.]]>May 17th 2010 9:14PMhttp://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/http://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/
My reason for quitting is simply because I'm fed up with it. The time consumption, the constant bragging on the updates, the loss of productivity, and because half of the people on there are not "Friends" but rather people I just know.

Most importantly, because I miss the humanity. I want to hear someone talk rather then see letters on the screen.

I'm a young buck but call me old' fashioned. ]]>May 18th 2010 2:33AMhttp://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/http://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/May 18th 2010 5:18PMhttp://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/http://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/May 18th 2010 6:36AMhttp://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/http://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/What in the world are you commenting about?

One thing I learned long time ago is not to post anything anywhere that you don't want a million people to see so I keep away from posting a lot of personal things unless I absolutely have to do it on all the sites that I go on to and even then I post minimal information.]]>Jun 2nd 2010 4:43PMhttp://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/http://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/Jul 21st 2010 10:57AMhttp://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/http://www.switched.com/2010/05/17/fed-up-with-facebook-delete-it-and-heres-how/May 18th 2010 6:48AM
