Nothing. Maybe everything? People post pictures of their family. These photographs are then analysed by FB using facial recognition algorithms. They can then check others photographs for similar images/locations. I came off because I have no interest in FB anymore. I joined in 2007 when it first started and once I realised it was just a data mining tool I came off. If you later become an interesting figure to the establishment, information you post, no matter how irrelevant it may seem to you WILL be used against you. It is George Orwell's Big Brother society and it is happening everywhere you look. It isn't just FB, I am trying to reduce my footprint all over the Internet. If you want to keep giving out information about yourself and your family then fine, go ahead. Just don't say I didn't warn you.
And I am more than happy with this Amiga community here thank you very much. I don't need FB chewing more of my precious time!
