Wait, wasn't it you that ordered the 10-minute argument? :-) Fair enough. Or it could be I'm getting bombarded on almost a daily basis with a sense of entitlement from those that *choose* not to join a social networking site and yet complain or express envy about what they cannot access. What they CHOSE not to access. ;-) If they're choosing not to join, they've kind of limited their right to be annoyed that they can't access the content, no? > On the other hand if you want to share something with the world you *should be aware* > that you are excluding quite a few people by exclusively putting it on Facebook instead > of an open sharing site; that's also a choice. Sure. Same is true if they're exclusively putting it on Pinterest or Twitter. Or any social networking site. Or, even back in the day exclusively putting it on GEnie or CompuServe, which was even worse considering people actually had to pay to gain access to those services. But the difference is, I didn't hear people complain violently about what they _chose_ not to be a part of back in those days. Besides, what's wrong with the idea of those that are paranoid about their privacy making a Facebook profile that has absolutely NO accurate personal information in order to access what they wish or join any group?
