If you’ve been on Facebook recently, you might
well have seen a status update warning users
that their entire Facebook history will become
public unless they copy and paste the message
onto their own page.
According to the message, “Channel 13
News” (nope, us neither), have reported on the
change to Facebook’s privacy policy, which will
become effective from “tomorrow”.
The message goes on to declare that by posting
it, the user is forbidding Facebook from making
their profile public, and if Facebook ignores it,
the message continues, it will be violating laws
including the Rome Statute and the UCC 1-308.
The message says any user who wants to avoid
their account being made public has to copy and
paste it at least once to ensure their privacy.
