Facebook defended themselves on Wednesday saying they "believe the lawsuit is without merit and will defend ourselves vigorously."
Well, they got BILLIONS ... shouldn't be hard to buy a few favorable opinions.

Don't forget that FB tracks your movements throughout the web so they can target you with ads. Logging out doesn't stop it. You have to delete cookies.

Google already targets me in my gmail. I don't really care. Facebook just bores me.

Yabbut if you use Firefox you can have the Adblock Plus add-on free which hids all ads from your FB experience. It's so refreshing!

"I wish facebook would fail completely and forever."

Wooohoooooo! This is better than the Nerf Frisbee I won from Clubhouse 22s Pick-a-Door.

Wishes DO come true! (wishing really hard: some crazy person I don't know dies and leaves me 500 acres of animal reserve (preserve?) to run, plus a big old house and a swimming pool.) Too much?
