   When you join Facebook, as we all know, it costs you nothing...but
   your privacy and personal information. Most go there with eyes open.
   But Facebook reads AND censors all pages and posts; removing posts and
   groups as they see fit. Usually those which oppose their
   liberal/socialist ideology. I've been a member of half a dozen or more
   pages/groups which were intimidated then removed because members
   posted comments counter to the Facebook administrators' viewpoints.

     Socialism? Facebook? I think it's raw Capitalism. They exploit your
     data, then lie to their advertisers. Everything you put there is
     theirs, forever. The price you pay to be connected.
     I'm all for Capitalism, but can't say I think their practices are
     admirable.
