It can be used against you? Whats your opinion?

Probably keeps you out of the dog house as well. Don't forget the crazy wives/girlfriends and the Ex's that use it against you

I hear you there. I try to not have girl friends be my fb friends either now just because of all the BS I have had to deal with in the past.

Healthy alternative...
Use a pseudonym- it's nearly impossible to find out who John Slartibartfast is in real life if he doesn't exist. Plus you should route your email, FB, and anything else that goes on the interwebz through several ghost servers so it looks like Slartibartfast lives in Bulgari- no Romani- now it's MOSCOW!? I have three different Emails I divulge to the public- Work, FB, my production company- then two I don't usually give out that are under a false name for things like... uh, looking at pictures and videos of... uh Guns! Yeah that's it, guns!

Just FYI using "fake" or "pseudo" names on the internet can be considered breaking the law.

A line about "unauthorized access" being illegal, can be anything from illegally accessing the White House's website to using a false name during an online registration process.

It is really simple. Don't post anything on the internet anywhere that you don't want everyone to see.

Sounds simple, but things you think are fine (like donating to a politician) can be taken poorly by another individual. The only real solution is abstinence from the net, but where is the fun in that

I know a guy who's been in the Army for a few months who keeps bitching on his FB about how much he misses smoking pot. Doesn't seem like a smart idea to me. I brought it up once and he was like "well it's not like I'm actually doing it!"

I got yelled at for posting this on FB while in the Army:
"Is it wrong that I think the guy living in the white house is up to no good?"
I didn't say specific names, and I could have been talking about any white house (since I didn't capitalize or state where said white house was)...

Just saying

I have FB but don't really use it much. I don't post random stuff on there like I would on here. too much crap can come back to get you when your direct name is attached to it.
plus, just set your settings to friends only, nobody can search you, and keep personal info down to a minimum.

Also be careful of what your friends post... don't want to get fired for that weekend in Vegas because your friend tagged a photo of you snorting a gram of blow off that hooker's chest.
