Facebook disabled my account , Im not to sure when this happen I dont log in every day and i never got a warning email.I`m going to try to get it back but dont know if I will be able to.


Staten Island Man Sues Facebook for $500K Over Disabled Account.I dont think i will sue

(The Pcmag story)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
If your Facebook account was suddenly disabled, how would you react? Panic attack? Twitter tirade? How about a lawsuit?

That's how one Staten Island man reacted after he discovered that he no longer had access to his account on the social-networking site. Mustafa Fteja has filed a $500,000 lawsuit against Facebook for essentially cutting him off from his social circle, according to the New York Post.


The 39-year-old has been without Facebook since September, when he was informed that his account had been disabled. Fteja said he has tried for months to get a response from Facebook about the issue, but to no avail. Fteja denies that did anything inappropriate or used his account for spamming purposes.

Fteja said he used Facebook to keep in contact with friends and family around the globe. According to the Post, his suit makes some pretty bold accusations - from communism to religious discrimination. He wants monetary damages and the restoration of his account.

Facebook did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Fteja joins a long line of bizarre, tech-related legal issue of late - from the woman who sued Google over walking directions that she claimed resulted in her getting hit by a car to the more recent story of the woman who walked into a mall fountain while texting and threatened to sue.

Hmmmmmmmmmmm????????????

I don't use facebook. Never have never will. I used Myspace along time ago but now I don't even use it. I log on to this site and one other gay dating site and that it. No Yahoo IM, no Twitter. None of it. I'm not going to waste my time.

Wish they'd delete mine :))

I rarely use it and certainly not to tell everyone what I had for breakfast or what time I went to bed! The utter trivial crap some post on these things is astounding!

Dear Mike, Are you really as old fashioned as I am and don't use those "social networks"? :eek:

Today people seems to think that if they don't reports absolutely everything in his private life they don't exist.

It's extremely important to tell the whole world things like this:

"I think I have to fart."

Twenty seconds later you have to tell the world:

"Now I farted and it smells."

:))

I joined Facebook about a year ago because I was invited by a (physical) friend to do so, so that he could share his photos with me. Immediately upon joining, I was deluged with names that Facebook suggested were "people I know". Well, when I say deluged, about six or eight.

The thing is, they WERE people I knew, but I did not give their names to Facebook, nor did I inform any of these people (with the exception of the aforementioned friend) that I was on Facebook. The only possible way Facebook could have linked me with these people was by examining their email address lists. those people may or may not have wished to maintain contact with me; it's not the business of Facebook to make that decision for them.

That, plus the fact that Facebook are known to have divulged "private" member information to advertisers - information that the members explicitly stated they wanted to be private - made me decide there and then to quit Facebook and not return. If someone wants to contact me, they can telephone me, use email, snail-mail, or, if it's someone I know from a chat site or a forum, they can use that site.

I am so fed up with people chatting to me on a site, and asking "Are you on Facebook or Yahoo or MSN?" No I am not on fucking Facebook or Yahoo or MSN, but I am on this site here right now, do you want to talk or not?
:angry::angry::angry::angry::angry:

And as for Twatter, I give that a big miss also. The vast majority of people simply do not care about the fact that I had a shower at 10:26 this morning.

jeansGuyOZ raised some valied points about FaceBook - but there is another - your privacy depends on NONE of your friends using FaceBook apps - the moment one of them is idiotic enough to use one, they have given YOUR private data to the developers of the app, who could be ANYONE!

FaceBook gives you the illusion of control, but actually, you have no control, FaceBook freely give your information to advertisers, and your friends, probably un-knowingly give your info away to app developers - many of whom are most unsavoury types.

Remember - on FaceBook - you are not the customer, you are the product! FaceBook make money by selling all the sheep who happily give them their private information. Zuckerberg gets rich, and most of the werstern world loose their privacy - not a fair deal. The whole things revolves around a 'let them eat cake' attitude.

Wise up, get out, control what you share yourself, so you can ACTUALLY control it. Anyone who's not out in a country that is hostile to gays is taking their life in their hands using FaceBook IMO.

As for Yahoo, MSN, and Twitter - 100% totally different things. Twitter is a public medium, you are 100% in control of your privacy there, if you tweet it, it's public knowledge that will be stored in the library of congress for ever (not shitting you). If it's private, don't tweet it. On Twitter you only see what you want to see, if you are stupid enough to follow vapid fools, then you'll see mindless drivel, if you have the intelligence to only follow interesting people, then you'll see interesting things.

Anyhow - I digress - FaceBook is dangerous, and it not on your side. Better out than in!

Pure coincidence or is it something else, anyway my friend found this scary enough to send me an email the other day to share her latest Facebook experience. For about two years now, she is been having an awful divorce ever since her husband left her for another woman. I don't know how many Facebook users there are in France though since there are seventy Million people there, my guess is that they are many. And she lives in Paris, not some little village in the country. Last week she discovered her ex is now a father. Not by his friends, not by her friends, not even by him, but by his Facebook page. She is not masochist, so she had never even considered going to his Facebook wall so to check on him. The reason why she found out about his new born baby is because Facebook sent her his page as a friends suggestion, and the picture on his avatar was of him holding his new son in his arms. Now I am really not an adept of the conspiracy theory, but here I find that situation a littlt bit strange.

Yep. Exactly what I would expect to happen. Someone using Facebook was a "friend" to both of them - hardly surprising since they were once married. Notice I put "friend" in quotes. A Facebook "friend" is not necessarily someone who likes you, helps you, supports you when you are down etc... it's someone who has ticked a particular option box.

I have noticed that hardly anyone over the age of 20 has a good word to say about Facebook - yet they use it. What is it with people these days, that they feel unable to simply opt out of something they don't like? I belong to a gay social group here in Perth, and the organisers have let it be known that they have set up a Facebook account for members to discuss planned events, and "by simply joining Facebook" I can participate as well. I responded that I will not join Facebook, and I will therefore not see the notices unless they also post them on their own website, or send emails.

We're not all that spinless - I put my money where my mouth was and nuked my account when the whole beacon fiasco hit. Never once regretted it.

GAH!!! Why would any group voluntarily surrender control of their own messaging and organisation, and, voluntarily exclude all non-facebook users. It's this kind of brainless sheep that FaceBook rely on. Why waste your own time advertising, when people who you don't pay a cent to will pressure all their friends and/or all members of a club into joining under threat of social isolation.

I do hope you expressed your displeasure clearly!

So I must be the lonely exception to the rule cause I love my Facebook and I use it on a daily basis. But then many of my friends do so maybe it depends on the people you hang with.
