Was in the paper the other day that a woman had to speak to some kind of citizen official board in the US to get facebook to take her request to remove her daughters facebook, seriously. She had to wait for over 18 months whilst people bombarded her daughters page with abuse.

Was the daughter dead? cause if you have the login details it only takes 14 days to get your page deleted.

there was a British girl recently, who was murdered by a predatory peadophile who had groomed her thru FB, her FB page was kept online after her murder, & got trolled by the kind of bottom feeders who get there jollies doing that kind of thing.

FB repeatedly refused to remove the murdered girls page until the British police, contacted the US embassy in London, asking them to intervene on behalf of the dead girls mother, and have the FB page removed.

How where people posting on there if she wasn't accepting them?

According to their T&Cs, the user owns the rights, but Facebook can pretty much do what it wants with the users data.

Oh so it's in their T&Cs that they can continuously lose users personal information, I thought it was just lack of professionalism. I might sign up now

I've got a friend that passed away just over a year ago, I find its quite nice to be able to see his profile. As long has deceased persons profiles don't get destroy by stupid people
its fine.

Lots of people like leaving comments etc, people add photos its quite nice.

FB should have some kind of a graveyard mode facility for dead members...a part of the site that a living person would feel creepy to visit at,say, midnight...my 2 cent on the subject!

So you either update the letter often, or you never change your passwords!

It doesn't get updated too often, about twice a year, sometimes more depending on what I'm doing. I change my passwords every six months.
