Life Lock is a joke. The man who started it has had is identity stolen about 6 times.

The way the man plasters his SS number all over the place he was asking for it IMHO.

Personally, im not a member, but it is an outlet for monitoring your situation.

I think the article blows it out of proportion a bit too.

basic point however... dont put any info on a website that you wouldnt tell a stranger

piece of cake.

Now, when Darth Facebook and about 30 Facebook Troopers storm my residence - and fight to the last man standing... and Darth facebook has me in his evil mind power choke grab demanding the plans for the secret Myspace base... anyone can feel free to jump right in and shout in my face

TOLD YOU SO!!!!

Until then, i doubt that a list of my favorite books and TV shows plays some crucial role in a sinister plot to enslave all of humanity

What he did was present a challenge to be hacked and ripped off. Look at me with my SS# on a billboard truck. Go ahead I dare ya! The hackers won the challenge.

Some people on here give out info all the time, we give each other a little extra trust than on other websites because we have something in common but the threads are open to view..!

...and how many links do you click on from this site 'hoping' the other end is safe? I've added a new mod, get it from my FF page... good luck!

Facebook is similar, privacy settings in some form have always been there but some people either choose to ignore them or are too foolish to realise - despite the constant warnings from friends/media.
