Currently on my home page, there is a "photo of the day." It appears that Pavy posted it. It is under his name.

A couple days ago, that exact same photo of the day appeared under my name, as if I had posted it. I had not seen the photo before and I did not create the post. I guess Facebook just did that.

WTF? I just deleted it but I REALLY don't like that.

It is one thing to stick a bunch of crappy advertising in your face or beg you to bug your friends to play some stupid game, but to post something under my name as if I am recommending it or something - that really sucks on Facebook's part. It is borderline slanderous really.

If Facebook has to be a whore, then be a whore. It is no skin off my nutsack if someone wants to be a whore. But that kind of shit is offensive.
 
Hmmm. Lemme see if this works at all;

app_full_proxy.php


No it looks like that is just the so-called "photo of the day," not the whole post. I don't know how to capture the whole post. Anyway, picture that pic surrounded by this text.


Pavlos Pavlopoulos (and his normal profile pic)
View today's photo of the day!
View the photo at: Between You and Me
Like Remove Post 14 hours ago via Between You and Me



And then picture the exact same pic a couple of days ago surrounded by the exact same text except under my name and profile pic.

I didn't post it and I doubt Pavy did either. Something at Facebook assigned authorship to us (well me anyway) and for that, they suck.
 
they do that... I've seen my friends post identical photos of the day spread out over a few days. But my friends had never even seen the pics. It's like you're advertising something but you never even entered the contest. I'm not sure what that is but it's messed up.

On another note - it pisses me off that I can't read articles others have read without installing an app. Or googling of course. Pavy reads some good ones and it's a mess trying to find them. Post a link on my wall saying you read an interesting story... let me read the story when I click FACEBOOKKKKKKKKKKK!
 
I don't know. I sign up for some games. That's about it. I guess those are considered apps and I have allowed them???

I guess that's why Millionaire feels they have permission to (whorishly) create those posts that so-and-so is feeling great sadness because I missed their lifeline question - when that person didn't send a lifeline question or even play the game in months. I don't know what that idiotic crap does for Millionaire (other than making them look like whores) but at least they have permission I guess.

I have never even heard of "Between You and Me"

To their credit, at least they have the grammar right. Many people would say (incorrectly, whorishly), Between You and I.

But they can still bite me.



:mudcat:
 
Be very careful when you "Allow" apps on your FB account. A lot of them ask you for permission to post on your behalf.

yeah see, that's my problem

i refuse to install anything - even though fb is already sucking in all my info anyway (freefall confirm plz)

but I can't read shit and it makes other things unusable

i really think it's an evil site... if muddy hadn't mentioned the pic thing, i wouldn't have thought to mention it

but seriously: just splashing pics on someone's profiles? or even that status shuffle shit. i texted my boss - not rbs - to say can you not come up with at least one original thought a day and he had no clue wtf i was talking about. "haven't checked fb in a week" that nonky status shuffle was posting stuff for him.

I have no idea what the photo of the day is. I get it frequently and it says I posted the picture but I didn't. If it keeps coming up I will sue the Zuckerberg guy for 1 billion dollars!
 
Pavy do you know my barber?

I know how tight you people are.

Pavy I miss you.

If he is originally from the country of Greece I'd probably won't know him. If he is from the country of Cyprus I'd probably do.

I miss you too! Post more often if you have time.

P.S. RogueJuror can we make a new smiley for me with the flag of Cyprus instead..lol
 
facebook is evil

It seems like Facebook will do everything they can to sacrifice your online privacy -- even going so far as to publicly support a bill pending in the US Congress that would allow Facebook to hand over your data -- and the data of Facebook users around the world -- to other corporations or the US military, without a warrant.

Can you sign our urgent petition telling Facebook to drop its support of US government spying on its members?

If the Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act (CISPA) passes, companies could intercept your text messages and emails to share with each other and the government -- giving the US military the power to track, control, and share almost all of your online information without the use of a warrant. They could even block access to websites, or cut off your internet connection altogether. Like SOPA (which Facebook opposed), CISPA is a major threat to internet freedom and gives the government broad power to protect big media companies at your expense.

Facebook’s opposition was instrumental in shutting down SOPA, but now Facebook is fighting FOR CISPA. That's why we're teaming up with our friends at Demand Progress to get Facebook to side with its users instead of military spy agencies, and in the process start a powerful, organized opposition to this dangerous bill.

Sign our joint petition to Facebook now, telling it to stand up against government intrusion into our online privacy rights.

Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook, has said “We can’t let poorly thought out laws get in the way of the Internet’s development.” Yet with CISPA, he is supporting a far-reaching law that could dramatically limit our freedom on the internet. CISPA strips away previous privacy laws, and by creating a broad immunity for companies against both civil and criminal liability, it robs citizens of any means of fighting back.

Today vast amounts of our information is routed through the internet -- our shopping history, our Google searches, our love letters and personal communications, and much of our activism -- and all of it would become a fair target for the US military under a definition of “cybercrime” so broad that anyone could be a suspect.

Tell Facebook to get serious about protecting our privacy from US military and government intrusion.

I like that sentence. Sounds like something out of a Russian novel.

And I didn't even know that you and me is correct. I figured you say me when before and I when after. :dunno:
But calling it whorish is really creative. :up:
