I have an account on facebook, but i rarely sign in. I only use Yahoo and gmail to contact with my friends. In addition, I like to meet and make friends on forum. I'm interested in everything about mobile, so I join to forum symbianvn.net and i've many friends on that.
ReplyDeleteAbout personal information, the information i use on internet is my name, birthday, Y!M, email..., nothing is important, so it isn't my problem
The thing is that, as you will read some articles about facebook, your information may be sold to some company. This company may then use the information to build a profile about you and, later on, flood your mail box with advertisements. This may not be a big deal to us, yet, when it doesn't pose any safety concern. Also, there are often regulations about selling information to a third party.
ReplyDeleteI have facebook, yahoo, gmail, cyworld and mimo account.
ReplyDeleteThey help me to connect with my friends and many other people. They are very useful in terms of information exchange.
Sometimes, I am afraid of being addicted to using them all the time.
About my personal information, I have never seen my personal information to be abused.
Moreover, I am just a ordinary person so I think that nobody wants to know about my personal information.
Some companies can get my address or my email to send flyers but this does not really annoyed me. I also find some interesting information in their advertising.
