really liked the page! good info =)

kind of off topic, but just asking for thoughts, i don't like or join any groups on facebook because i'm worried that a potential employer might look at my facebook profile, and the fact that i have ms would prevent me from getting a job. i feel like i miss out by not liking things, like the national ms society's page puts out good articles, etc. is it a thought process that makes sense, or am i just being paranoid?

Hi

No, not paranoid!! With the lack of privacy online ,we have to be very careful and protect ourselves. I know some people that have a FB account for everyone to see and an anonymous one. You can also just look at the pages, but don't hit like or comment, just read. That's how you can "hide" what you are looking at.

thanks.. I'll check it out... Alma, add me Stacey Hollowell Hollis...

Thanks for posting Alma, very interesting - have 'liked' on my fbk.

malinac505: You can set your facebook profile to be totally private. Unless you add someone as a friend they can not see anything you've liked.
I like to keep my facebook for things I enjoy and for sharing things with family and close friends. I'm a pretty private person (you almost have to be in a small town like I live in or everyone would always be in your business) and I never got in to the adding friends that I'm not actually friends with in real life. Seriously... who actually has 600+ friends? lol

Anyway... I didn't mean to rant.. but you can make your profile private and avoid the potential furture issues with employers.

Also you can join those groups outside FB, thru their own websites and no one will know that.

i got off of Facebook and closed everything I had out there, which was a lot, down. I read that Facebook is not only selling all of our info, to places like Spokeo (look yourself up on Spokeo, you'll be shocked), but also to pollsters, advertisers, and government agencies. No way do I want my info that public. Oh yes, they get your info no matter what your security settings are.
