Just think when the government, agents (LEA) -what do you think what going to come up in there background search on you with personal life online, for everyone to read - even steal your own ID for criminal purposes. Even most companies do background checks on you now days, so if you want it to stay private- keep it that way not out in the open.
I'm just saying how it is out there in the 21st century with jobs market/personal life - another thing that just came to me, even the criminal minded/burglar know how to use, facebook etc for places to empty out for easy cash now days...... it makes you wonder on how many ways, with your personal life or daily habits in the open can be used against you.
Thank you for reading, how about your views?

What is the point of a social network where you are anonymous? Hardly "social", is it? Also, if it's legit, why just give a hint? Why not give a link? After all, it's a social network, so the more members, the better.
Facebook is perfectly safe as long as you are careful not to reveal too much on it, and are careful to lock down your account using the privacy controls. Same as any site where you chose to register.
For instance, if you look me up on Facebook, you will only find that I live in London, I work for a University, my birthday and that I like Douglas Adams and drinking. I also go to the gym regularly. All this info is available elsewhere, so is hardly a secret.
You will also find that I make the majority of my status updates on the iPhone. However, this is not a good indication of where I am because I leave places turned off (I do believe that feature is at best pointless and at worst dangerous) and I use facebook on the iPhone whether I am home or not.
