Why NOT to put your information on facebook

Cause changing your status could give your jealous, high, drunk, psychopath of an ex husband the incentive to hack you to death....

Man jailed for life for hacking wife to death over facebook relationship status

Wayne is... facing life imprisonment

By Sylvie Barak: Friday, 17 October 2008, 3:38 PM

A SOUTH LONDON man has been banged up for life after stabbing his wife to death when she changed her Facebook relationship status to “single”.

34-year-old Wayne Forrester was apparently emotionally wounded when, after he moved out of their home, his wife Emma updated her profile to “single” and wrote she was “looking to meet men”. Talk about twisting the knife.

Forrester had purportedly left the house on suspicion that Emma was poking someone else after 15 years of what was described to the court as a “volatile marriage”.

High on cocaine and booze, Forrester drove back to their home in the middle of the night and began stabbing her with a kitchen knife and hacking at her with a meat cleaver as she slept.

The jury heard how Forrester was not being particularly social when he beat her, tore out clumps of her hair, and stabbed her again and again in the head and neck.

Neighbours called the cops after hearing screams and finding Wayne, covered in blood, sitting outside the house.

The court was told that, on the day before Emma was murdered, Wayne had called her parents to moan that her Facebook entry "made her look like a fool". He later told police, "I loved Emma and felt totally devastated and humiliated about what she had done to me." In our humble opinion, he could have had another stab at making the relationship work.

Instead, Forrester pleaded guilty to murder and has been ordered to serve a minimum term of 14 years.

Good thing I do not have a facebook profile. I hear what you put up on these thing can also cost you your job, an opportunity for a job, and in general make your life a social disaster.

Many marketing business use facebook as a tool, so to re-iterate what laertes said, Facebook is a necessity. However like any internet based source of mis/infromation one should ALWAYS be aware of the potential risks associated with the information made available. That being said, ppl please keep in mind that Facebook is just a tool so to speak and you must be careful of what is published on such.

Personally, I was never into social network websites until facebook as it allowed me to see OLD pictures of my yesteryear that I would otherwise never have seen again. Also it has allowed me to find old school friends that i've been out of touch with for years due to migration.

... @ necessity... i guess it all depends on what people view as a necessity,

because of all the companies and parthners i work with, they dont require anything with fb or linked... they might "prefer" to have it, but they dont need it, its not like a resume where u cyah really get a job without 1, or a passport where u cant leave the country without one...

if facebook was a necessity i woulda get passed up for plenty ops... because my fb profile is a mess (people woulda think i is some angry person cuz my profile pic based on fighters club lol)...

for some companies its a nice to have... for most its a... well nothing (guess what is one of the top sites that people want blocked when they implementing web filtering, yup facebook), prolly a necessity for a few :S idk

Weird. Isn't it...I don't know....impossible to see somebody else's Facebook account unless they themselves give you permission to in the first place? Some of you guys are making it sound like you can read a person like an open book just by simply accessing their Facebook page. I've tried, but I can't seem to see another person's page without them accepting me as a friend first.


In any case, it's sad that this happened. I can even sympathise here, because I've had to deal with a jealous, borderline-psychotic fella who called my house at 2 in the freaking morning to send me a kidnapping threat. The reason? He thought I was macking on his girl.


......needless to say, he got his ass dumped. Good riddance.
