I like so many have downloaded and viewed all the information FB has collected on me personally over the years, but find I can’t just delete it since it is the ONLY way to contact many family members back home in the states.

My solution is I use it to post news articles I come across of general interest, but I no longer post any news or photos of myself, even though I do have an occasional person post me in group shots or what not.

As I am just an old geezer, I don’t know what anyone could find interesting about me or my life. Photos aren’t really a problem either, because one of the things Facebook has is the coordinates to my facial recognition. So what? China, just 15 minutes away, also has my photo and facial recognition coordinates, along with 2–3 billion other folks and I am sure the US government has it as well.

Smile, we are all on candid camera.
