Ive got a fix ...dump FB.
ReplyDeleteFacebook often has "fun" postings that ask who was your favorite teacher, what was your first car, in what city were you born, etc..
ReplyDeleteThese are exactly the same questions used as security questions by your bank, credit card company and others. Facebook already knows who you are, where you live, who your friends are, your political persuasions, your recipes, your pets and now you want to give them the answers to potential security questions? American people are STUPID!!!!
Okay bye no one cares if you stop posting pictures of your grandkids anymore
