					<description><![CDATA[Your security level in Facebook can be changed so only people you choose can see your information, photos etc.  The problem is that many people do not bother change their security settings to fit their needs.

Like any other tool Facebook is what you make out of it, and make it work for you rather than just make money for the company that runs it.

Daphne, you should change your status (and privacy setting attached to it) to, for example, &quot;I do not use this profile&quot; on Facebook; like that your friends know you dont use it but also prevents some cyber squatter to hijack your name once you delete it.

&lt;strong&gt;(Daphne - No way. I am way over 25 years old and so are my friends. We keep in touch by telephone and email, and sometimes we have lunch. I can&#039;t help feeling there&#039;s something sad about people in their 40s Facebooking each other, unless they are separated by oceans and time zones.)&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I think that if Facebook was around in 2001, then all the tragic events of 9/11 could have been prevented.  The ever watchful CIA would have surely thought that something was up when some suspected terrorist posted photos of training exercises or wrote on their status bar that they were excited about exacting savage revenge on the infidel.

Having failed that, I&#039;m sure some prospective employer or vigilant paedophile would have smelt a rat and informed the relevant authorities sooner or later.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[i m a very lonely sep mother of two . am i doing anything wrong being on facebook....i only have my daughter( as shes living with her dad) and some nieces  as FRIENDS... who i chat with every now and then ..don&#039; t even have a pic of myself except of my two kids...so. again ...please tell me if i m doing anything wrong ...

&lt;strong&gt;(Daphne - Of course you&#039;re doing nothing wrong as such. But you&#039;d be far better off getting out there and meeting people in the flesh. Electronic communication is no substitute for meeting real, live people face to face. And I think it&#039;s terrible that your relationship with your daughter, who lives with her father, has been reduced to that of a Facebook &#039;friend&#039;. Is this something you want, or a situation that has been forced on you?)&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&quot;FaceBook IS real life, Andrew, especially when it’s minutely examined by perverts, stalkers and house-robbers for valuable information that fools let slip&quot;

That is so so true!  People tell you when they are going to be abroad, their D.O.B., their picture - what more does a thief need!  If you use it, use it wisely!

On the subject of internet security - may I impose on you to make use of your blog to give another warning?

All those who use wireless routers/access points raise their hands!  Now all those who had it installed properly by somebody with more than a passing knowledge in the fields put down their hands ...

Still many hands I see - people, as somebody who earns a living in IT, take my advice - set up any wireless internet PROPERLY!  Ideally switch off the access point when not in use!  At best you are just sharing your bandwidth with your neighbours, at worst you are giving crooks free access to your personal files and documents.

Even worse paedophiles are known to log on to some dimwit&#039;s unprotected network to download and exchange child porn - using the said dimwit&#039;s ip address ofcourse.

IT&#039;S HAPPENED BEFORE AND CONTINUES TO HAPPEN (no, not yet in Malta to my knowledge, but you never know)

Secure your wireless!!!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Actually it&#039;s ironic that just as governments are passing data protection laws, people themselves seem to be more than willing to flaunt their private lives all over the place. It brings to mind a consumer campaign lauched in the 90s, I believe, for the removal of names and addresses from the vehicle licence sticker. But just as these details came off, in came the pesonalised number plates! With people flaunting their names and birthdays and what have you to make their car as recognisable as possible!
I suppose their is an exhibitionist element in many of us. Trouble is that many of us, then, are surprised at the consequences of a certain recklessness.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[@ Mario P - ferderal agents seized all CCTV records in the surrounding area. Then, after a suit under the Freedom of Information Act, they released 2 short videos, neither of which shows a plane. It is believed that it was a missile that hit the Pentagon. The initial hole in the Pentagon, before the rest collapsed (by explosives), is compatible with that of a missile hole, which also cleanly penetrated two interior walls (mhux tas-sejjieh). Many pilots and air traffic controllers maintain it is impossible to maneuver a plane of that size as told by the official story, especially by Hani Hanjour, who allegedly piloted the plane, but who was described by his flight school instructor as being unable to fly a small plane.

There is a lot of evidence proving that the official story is a lie. Anyone interested can google or youtube 9/11 and start from there. Many theories abound, not all of which seem probable, yet some of the most improbable ones become highly probable once you know the history of US government agencies&#039; black ops.

Concerning ulterior explosions, live news coverage at the time recorded several explosions at the WTC (because demolition requires major base explosions to blow up the central steel structure). These were not mentioned the following day or thereafter, while the Commission report mentions no explosions. Yet you can watch these live MSM recordings on Youtube - they are all there. One excellent giveaway that the towers were brought down by demolition experts are the giveaway angled cuts (by means of thermite, used to cut steel) - this is one example: http://www.sharpprintinginc.com/911/images/pagemaster/jones9_p1_5.jpg  There is of course Larry Silverstein himself, the leaseholder of Tower 7, which was not hit by a plane, who said on national TV that they decided to &quot;pull it&quot;: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7WYdAJQV100

This is just the tip of the iceberg. There are literally millions of videos and websites that prove the lie. Anyone who has not sufficiently investigated 9/11 with an open mind cannot sufficiently judge on what really happened.]]></description>
