    I'm hearing rumours that Facebook is now publicly traded... if only a few people sporadically posted something thinly veiled about it, we might just be able to change things forever. Come on you guys... it worked for Kony!!!

    People are posting this sh*t on Facebook.
    Warning -any person and/or institution and/or Agent and/or Agency of any governmental structure including but not limited to the United States Federal Government also using or monitoring/using this website or any of its associated or non associated websites, you do NOT have my permission to utilize any of my profile information nor any of the content contained herein including, but not limited to ...
    my photos, and/or ... the comments made about my photos or any other "picture" art posted on my profile. You are hereby notified that you are strictly prohibited from disclosing, copying, distributing, disseminating, or taking any other action against me with regard to this profile and the contents herein. The foregoing prohibitions also apply to your employee, agent, student or any personnel under your direction or control the contents of this profile are private and legally privileged and confidential information, and the violation of my personal privacy is punishable by law. UCC 1-103 1-308 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED WITHOUT PREJUDICE

    For those of you who do not understand the reasoning behind this posting, Facebook is now a publicly traded entity. Unless you state otherwise, anyone can infringe on your right to privacy once you post to this site. It is recommended that you and other members post a similar notice as this, or you may copy and paste this version. If you do not post such a statement once, then you are indirectly allowing public use of items such as your photos and the information contained in your status.

    I assume that's what the OP is alluding too.

    I'd love to know who starts this stuff, it's hilarious.

    It's not a rumour - they floated on the stock exchange.

    Have you been living under a rock since March?

    They can't charge me! I posted
    Facebook is soon to start charging its users. However, they have said that those who post this as their status for at least one hour will not be charged.

    Copy and paste this as your status now and avoid the fee!

    as my status two years ago!

    He's busy posting statuses asking people to like it to help cure cancer of starving African babies who own puppies with no legs and two glass eyes.

    You automatically forfeit you info when you join FB, it's nothing new.

    Any pics you upload are no longer yours. FB owns them now.

    You'd think now that the internet has been around for a little while that folks should be able to spot a hoax like this when they see it not to mention that they're completely oblivious that they already agreed to FB's terms and conditions when they signed up. Bah.

    Its true, if you don't post the privacy thing, Facebook automatically owns all your possesions and Mark Zuckerberg can come round your house and take your TV/kids.

    Seeing it on my wall again. People really will believe anything without question.

    As one person put it when asked about their status:
    "I dunno, saw it on another person's profile. Thought I'd share it to help."

    ..........


    You sure showed them.............now, carry on posting up pictures and updating your location every fùckin' hour.
