    Drag Queens V FaceBook

    What with all the furore over drag queens not using birth names on their Facebook Accounts I was wondering so do all of you honest & upright examples of citizenship use a alter ego on FB?

    My personal view is that until society accepts that any legal behaviour is fine & when people do not judge others doing whatever their personal political, religious, social view holds as wrong, then you can get snarky about alter egos.

    The cynic in me just thinks this is FB’s way of getting more data to sell.

      Why not have a professional page and a personal account, much easier, but then again thats what Facebook wants so it can limit showing of the posts on pages unless paid for, so Facebook are trying to push people down avenues which generate them a profit, which they are perfectly in their right to do

      I want my account deleted and all of my information removed, I want to invoke my right to be forgotten.

          This looks more to be about cash than anything else as SM said.

          Just had a quick looky at my FB friends list and there are two people who have nicknames instead of given names and a couple of married friends with a surname that references current and maiden. My understanding was that someone needed to complain or point out to the FB police that the data was wrong.

              He keeps his drag queen work separate from his IT work.

              His friends would be mortified to know he wore sandals with socks during the day.

                His friends would be completely unsurprised to know he wore sandals with socks during the day.
