Meh I could care less, I have had a rule ever since going inline, if I do not want info known by others I simply do not put in there in the first place.

I understand. I guess I am old, jaded and cynical, I EXPECT all privacy to be loose at best UNLESS were talking online transactions........

Considering that Facebook is notorious for it's lack of personal privacy, color me not surprised. Dropped any expectance when I saw that the chat system automatically logged you in and let all your friends know you were online without you giving any input. Makes it kind of hard to ignore people.

On topic, who cares? Do you really think they read everything? Would you really want to read the innane conversations that most brain dead teenagers have?

You know there's no proof they do. The only place I heard about this on was Info Wars and I don't take anything on that site seriously.

I am not sure having an overdue library book is enough to get you thrown into gaol with a cellmate called bubba.

I dunno, I've always suspected this. How's that big news, regardless if it was true or not? Isn't facebook generally a gigantic database of people living on this planet and they accepted that their data is collected in favor for the advantages of social networks?

Click the cog on the top of the chat menu, click "go offline" and it never auto signs you into chat again.
