OMG!


So I was doing my Internet trawling thing and came across on an article on ShinyShiny which made me bare paro. Do you actually know what things Facebook keeps???
  • You know that butters pic your friend tagged of you that you untagged and thought you would never ever see again? Or the status or comment you deleted, believing that it had vanished off the Internet world for good. Well, think again because Facebook keeps all of this info on their big fat server;
  • Gone are the days when you thought that you were anonymously stalking someone by looking through their pics, because Facebook keeps a log of this;
  • The other week I got a Facebook Best Friend badge thingymabob...so I went to investigate and found that this was based on Facebook activity between friends; apparently Facebook tracks how often you interact with a person's profile and how many times you click on it....
 SPOOKY!!!

Gosh it just goes to show how much of our liberties are taken away from us as we develop more and more into the Digital Age!
