If you have had anything to do with (over the net) anyone that has ever been on Facebook, even though you've never used Facebook you have a Facebook profile. Facebook has made one for you ....... isn't that nice.

They'll have an obligation to supply you with a complete report on everything they hold about you. Including that you asked for the list, of course.

I could look for the request form, it's bound to be out there. It would be easier for someone with a Facebook account to find though.

There are white page companies that do the same, and credit check companies, and a hundred other sorts of companies. I just keep a low profile.

I think it's too late for me.........SAVE YOURSELVES!

I’d love to know what they hold on me. People keep putting my photo’ up even though I’ve asked them not to because of the facial recognition software.

You tossed your privacy out the window the first time you ever began browsing the internet.

I love those untrue sweeping statements. With every company, lawyer, postal service etc etc you've ever dealt with you expect them to protect your information do you not? If those institutions spread spread your privacy around or said they owned your information you'd go spare wouldn't you?

We were actually very protective of privacy back in the early 90s as a default state, before the Department of Commerce took control of the registries.

Being on the internet is not unlike walking the streets of your average city. everything you do can be seen by anyone who happens to be around and notices you. If you capture their attention, they will watch to see what you are up to. If they are REALLY interested, they will follow you around and keep watching.
There are measures that you can take to either avoid their interest, or become so boring that they simply find another object of interest.
The bigger the city, the more busy all of the people are, and the less likely you are to be interesting to others.

And fortunately, there are many people who work very hard at gaining the attention of other people on the internet.
