Please don't anyone act surprised, no matter what fancy names we give these services; MySpace, Facebook etc..
In the end these are data mining companies, privacy is an obstacle for them.
Sooner or later this was bound to happen. Richard Stallmann has been warning about this for years, that moving to cloud based services will lead to immoral usage policies.
This is yet another day where I am happy that I never touched any of these "networking" sites.
I wanted to believe that it was real, but I think the fact that they had the Lionel Richie photo cued up already proves that most--if not all--of the segment was planned/rehearsed.
I do think her "Albany" answer was genuine, though.
@Alfisted: Dude? Are you for serious? You remember all those drunk, embarrassing pictures you took last night? Well of course you don't. But now half of your family does, and that weird kid that sat next to you freshman year does, and so does that cute girl that was interested in you(not so much anymore), and so does your boss, o and your neighbor. Why wouldn't you want one?
The tabloids can make drama themselves and keep the story going if it's profitable. They can have stories about how Tiger's life is down the toilet without his wife and kids, how Elin is "showing Tiger a thing or two" by moving on with her life or dating a new guy, etc. Look at all the endless stories about Jennifer Aniston's connection with Brad and Angelina. Aniston is usually in a different country than the couple, she and Brad don't share a kid or something that would mean continued ties, and the divorce was years ago.
I'm just going to keep voting for John Fitzgerald Page because to me he is the douchiest. I saw him interviewed on TV somewhere--Dr. Phil, maybe--and he made me so angry and I am now thrilled--well, semi-thrilled--to have the opportunity to express that anger in a productive way by clicking the box next to his name.
Hmmm, I deleted my myspace account a couple of months ago. Maybe I should go back? I wonder if this is an attempt by Facebook to reignite the competition, since they basically have none now that myspace all but bowed down to FB. I'm not sure I can go back to the stupid backgrounds, loud videos and music that immediately start when you access a profile, and the constant adbot friend requests though.

The highly underrated Bands on the Run was overlooked. You people have no soul.
