      Facebook is becoming very strict these days. Not just in registering name., even after registration, they put captcha while adding friends.!!

  6. FB wants to make sure the person and contact info is “real,” because the founder, Zuckerberg, is an anti-privacy advocate. In fact, what privacy controls are in place, are only there because the majority of users wanted them. So although this piece was a nice exercise in due diligencing, the fact remains that FB is an outstanding way to publish your entire life on the Internet for all to see with very little restrictions as to who may see it. For those who blow off this statement, see also the Moreno MySpace case for practical implications into your life.

    Oh wow! That’s really interesting, I didn’t know that facebook was doing that, but I guess with all the spammers out there, it is an important system.
