Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

This is how to download all of the information Facebook has about you

Private messages. Deleted friends. Political and religious views. It is all on here.
In light of recent events, a lot of folk have been feeling quite sceptical about their Facebook accounts.

Over the weekend, Mark Zuckerberg took out series of full-page newspaper ads to apologise over his role in the data leak scandal involving Cambridge Analytica.

If you've ever wondered just what information exactly the social media platform actually has, then there is a very easy way to find out, and to get it all in one place.
There are five simple steps to getting the information:

Log on to Facebook
Go to Settings
Scroll to the bottom of General Account Settings, and click on ‘Download a copy of your Facebook data’
Put your personal e-mail address when prompted
Once the data has been collected, you'll be asked to put in your password
And from there, it is all there for you to read.

Download Your Information
Get a copy of what you've shared on Facebook.

They say:

"We're generating your personal archive. We'll email you when it's ready.
What's included?
Posts, photos and videos you've shared
Your messages and chat conversations
Info from the About section of your profile
And more
You can access your Facebook data by visiting your Activity Log or by downloading your information, or by simply logging into your account. You can learn more about accessing your Facebook data and what categories of information this includes in our Help Center"

The full list of downloadable information is actually quite staggering, especially if you have been a member of Facebook for a number of years.

Just a small sample of available items to wade through include all of your private messages, all blocked/removed/deleted friends, all political and/or religious views, full information on all of your active sessions (where, when, and on what device), credit card details (if you have purchased anything via Facebook), phone numbers, Facial Recognition Data and IP address information.

Well, I hardly use Facebook but, seeing as how I am a registered user, I've just done mine and downloaded all the information they have on me.

As it says above:

Q. What's included?

Answer:

Posts, photos and videos you've shared
Your messages and chat conversations
Info from the About section of your profile
And more....

Mindblowing!

If you were that way inclined, it would be well worth hacking a Facebook account to get hold of all of this information.

Just have a look at yourself for yourself.

thank goodness i do not subscribe to any of these media sites other than LinkedIn

I didn't know you had to subscribe to be part of any of those. We live and learn.
Great day yesterday. Between getting the yard in some sort of order, there was the treat of seeing South Africa clean up the cheating Australians.

inhabit or sign up in that case

Trying to be more Democratic:

Follow Obama by harvesting the data of friends; though you aren't Obama/Democrat so don't expect to be hailed a genius.

Follow JFK and Clinton with sexual shenanigans; though best to do it when in office - even better if it is with an intern in a top government building. Don't forget to claim you didn't have sexual relations - this is the cherry on top.

WARNING We do not advocate being assassinated for sympathy to further your career.

What worries Big Brother is that the New World Order leaders have competitors - Freemasonry getting to grips with alternative powerful forces.

TRUMP vs DANIELS
i am much amused by this story, and confess it very much smells of a high end escort trying to make a fat anfd fast cheque

on her own admisssion, she shagged trump just the once
that scarcely constitutes an affair, though i suppose the revelation will cause some embarrassment in the trump household, but probably little surprise

the present incumbent (melania) knows full well on which side her bread is buttered
as is truthfully said, marrying your mistress just makes room for the next

Corbyn, Russia, Palestine and Hamas and anti-semitism
is it mere coincidence that all the above are linked to Corbyn?

Like bloodshed May and Saudi Arabia etc..

How to safeguard your Facebook data

Sometimes you might see 'Log in using your Facebook account'. This uses a 'Data App'.
The article, amongst other things, shows you how to limit what sort of data another website's data marketers' Data App can take:
eg:-

Just been to see my doctor.

As always, he was quite busy but I took a second to ask him:

"How do you determine whether or not an older person should be put in an old age home?"

"Well," he answered, "we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the person to empty the bathtub."

"Oh, I understand," I replied. "I suppose a normal person would use the bucket because it is bigger than the spoon or the teacup."

"No." he said. "A normal person would pull out the bathtub's plug. If you like, I can arrange for you to have a bed near the window. Will that be OK?"

Very pertinent and funny!

EL some of the posters here, I guess grew up without even having a bath other than a metal tub, without any plug hole, and you had to heat the water first in a large utensil. The Good Old Days!!

it was great .... had a buxom young maid to bring her jugs, and of hot water too

Can't say that these days cynic ,you will have the #me too lot on to you.

as long as they're young, buxom and pretty that's fine by me :-)

Commonwealth Games next week , have to keep an eye on those cheating Aussies.

Bloody crims , no wonder we deported them.

Only difference to our lads is that they got caught and admitted it, unlike what our chaps would do. Our government, institutions and charities cheat the public most of the time but few are willing to change anything. As for other sports persons, how many have doubts hanging over them concerning the use of drugs?
