I have a Facebook account, and it has been valuable in keeping in touch with my friends from all over the world. I also found long-lost friends on FB. We can communicate and share some pictures through direct messages. I can also share my thoughts and events publicly, if I want to. I share links to my blog posts as well, which makes it a significant way to increase traffic to my blogs. Sometimes, I post some merchandise too. What about you? Do you have a Facebook account? What do you do with it? Do you think all your activities are safe on FB? Photo is mine.

I have two Fakebook accounts. One is used to open accounts with other sites... I don't use it for anything else and took all personal information off that page. I blocked Fb from contacting me... The second Fakebook account I only use to talk to a friend in the Philippines since he's in college and can use Fakebook for free. We only use Fakebook Messenger. My real name is not on the second Fb account. I made up an email account that is only hooked up to that fake Fakebook page and don't check it... I don't even remember what that email address is/was. You need to be careful about letting some people on myLot know you have a Fakebook account. One person here asks to contact people on Fakebook and then begs them for money.

That's the reason I hate giving my fb account to the people as there are lots of people who beg money there.

I had a FB account for 5 or six years. I had one account for family and friends and another for the debate pages. I had no personal information on the debate profile. In 2020, FB began to censor and delete posts. They flagged information as false which, in the end, was accurate and true. In early 2021, I was suspended for calling boys dirty. The conversation was, you have four boys and four girls. You send them outside to play. Which ones come back in clean? My answer was, the girls, because boys are dirty. They suspended me within thirty seconds. I couldn't use my profile for a week. When I came back, I saved some photos and then deleted my profile. I quit Twitter and Gab at the same time. It was only after I quit that I found out how bad FB was regarding selling information. I miss family and friends but I do not miss FB.

You mean they sell information? That's why I also don't use my real name and birthdate on FB, it's good then that I did that.

@Jenaisle Yes. FB and other social media sites censored the information that was posted on the sites. They did so on behalf of US government agencies. FB (META) was caught selling personal information. The amount of the fines wasn't readily available. This issue was different than the data leaks that affected 533 million users. Yes. It's a good thing you didn't use your real identity.

I too have fb account and it is good for interacting with friends but I don't share any pictures I just chat or talk to them I don't think it's safe no matter how the security is.

That's for good measure. You're certain your photos are safe.

I do have mine as well. I just keep mine to keep in touch with friends and fanily around the globe. It has been my place to post my travel pictures and some memoirs with my family. I haven't used it for commercial purposes yet and it would be interesting if i could earn something from it perhaps.

@Jenaisle I also do that, but to save on space on my laptop, I also do online storage too. What I keep on the laptop are the current photos, and the old one goes online.
