Aren't you sure this belongs in the joke thread?

I know the law is a joke but there are those who think we are protected.

Kids today are taught trust technology and hide nothing.

I have an Facebook account and the first thing i did was to either remover or block stuff in my private settings

The only thing FB knows about me is my name, my mail address and my phone number and my age of course.

They do not know exactly where in Denmark I live(it happens I get a weather message from a town far away from where I live)Which I also can in my setting-Where I'm logged in from.

I have even blocked the apps I'm using to track me and much more.

I do not trust FB a tiny millimeter Only reason to why I have FB is due to my old friends who rather wanted to be on FB then on a Danish forum like this one.

My daily visit to FB is lower then my visit to this forum. I have more time on this forum then I have on FB.

Laws protect nothing and nobody. The factors defining circumstances do - or do not, it depends on these factors. Words mean nothing. Deeds count.

"Everything before the word 'but' is horsesh!t."

The law is being mocked, bend, raped and bought today every day, every hour, every moment. Its called politics.

I knew something was fishy with FB, when every little game or program always wanted access to your personal info. I whacked my personal account and re-discovered my subsim FB user name. It's kinda creepy to watch FB try and triangulate me. lol Up yours Zuckerberg.
