"It leads to cyber bullying"
No it doesn't, at least it doesn't if you have the least bit of common sense. Someone harassing you on Facebook? Block them. Easy as that. If they harass you in real life, that's not Facebook's problem at all, (and you should notify the principal or police about harassment in real life).
"It's nothing compared to talking in real life".
Yeah...but it's not supposed to replace talking in real life. It's supposed to be a tool to keep in touch with others far away, or to chat with others when talking isn't an option. Can you not handle talking to someone in person when you see them, and chatting them when you don't?
"Everyone on Facebook is retarded, saying things like #YOLO, etc"
Sorry, that's a problem with your friends. Get better ones. Unfriend annoying people, and friend people you actually want to talk to. Problem solved!
"They are evil, they r spreading mai personal informashun!!11"
No. They are not out to get you. If you aren't some criminal, why would they care about one of the hundreds of millions of people that use Facebook?
"I don't want people to see my personal information."
Then...don't put any? All you need is your name (Not even full name, you could use a nickname or abbreviate your last name.) People seeing your name and a picture of you (which is optional but recommended) is not gonna kill you.
So, why do you hate Facebook, (if you do?) What do you think of Facebook? Discuss Facebook

Edited by Jaevric: 5/20/2013 8:05:24 AMI deleted my Facebook because I hardly ever used it and got paranoid about just how much information there is on my activities on the Internet. I don't like social media due to the data mining the companies that run the services conduct. I do not want anyone but myself to know about some things I do on the internet.
