[AccessD] Linked in groups

 >I won't link to anyone that I haven't actually worked with, so my list is rather small in 
comparison to some who treat it more like Face book.

I deleted my Facebook account a few weeks ago.  I read an article just this week where employers are 
demanding, as a requirement for being hired, to look at your facebook page.  College coaches doing 
the same thing to get on a team.

I had actually done the lockdown procedure, but what is the point if the thugs can just demand 
access or we won't talk to you?  Mine was never very interesting but when these kinds of demands 
begin, it is time to get out of the environment entirely.

You cannot demand what doesn't exist.  Alternatively, "ohhh, let me make one and you and I will be 
the only friends!"

Having done that, there are a ton of pages which expect you to have a facebook account in order to 
do things that you would never expect to require facebook (opinions and the like).  Oh well, I don't 
have one.

I also deleted my Google history everywhere in advance of their new privacy policy.  Again, to my 
knowledge it was never very interesting but in general, none of your business!  The sad part is that 
some of the "uses" they talk about sound like greate use of technology, but in the end I don't trust 
that anyone can prevent hacking and so preventing the storage of my data minimizes the theft of my data.
