... how many is that?
First off, it's got to be a slow news day for this crap to show up like this.
But, anyway, this and stuff.
No one needs advice on how to help people by giving them money. You gotta be living in a fucking vacuum if you don't hear about people you know who need help.
Know anybody, personally, who's fighting cancer?
If they are traveling to/from treatments and have to take time off work with reduced or no pay, give to them directly.
Always give directly.
yw and stuff.
There is no deletion.
In the world of Facebook, "delete." means, "not easily visible by the casual observer."
You and I are the casual observers.
We can deactivate our entire account.
Not the verb, "deactivate."
That means the entire account becomes invisible to the casual observer.

Facebook is clear, and I have verified, that things people have shared out are not necessarily removed from observation by others due to deletion or deactivation.
I have seventeen (17) Facebook accounts.
One is useful for communicating with family and friends.
The others are simply part of my toolkit.
Should you ever want to thump, pull, push, mash and stretch Facebook (like come at an account with the Tor browser and get killed), create some freemails and jump in.
... as long as it meets or exceeds its mission statement:
"Our mission is to get you to pay us money and feel good about doing so."
If Sprint fails in that, it doesn't turn out well.
... because Facebook's members waive damned near every right that is on any books anywhere.
The only right we have is to leave.
I apologize for any and all remarks that I have made that have contributed to your discomfort and I am very sorry that you have father issues that have shaped your world view beyond any hope of meaningful dialog.
Be well.
You don't know the difference between bullshit and wild honey.
I actually spent a long time in Uncle Sam's Yacht Club, out on the Big Pond.
State your experience and then we can discuss.
Until then, get off my pasture.
Halliburton's business practices are not the concern of the employee any more than the military's is the concern of, say, the enlisted men.
In both cases, there are protections afforded employees who refuse to conduct illegal activities, but, in both cases, an individual can appeal to authority and are not liable for their employer's actions.
Your agenda aside, we return to the reality that people who want a paycheck work where they can get one.
I agree with you on all points.
Consider the restrictions we're imposing on a person trying to make a living:
1.) The person has choices about where to work
2.) They choose to work there anyway (assumes they even know about the place)
3.) Boom. They are an asshole.
How many people dig through years and years of stories that are in the public domain to see if they have to become an asshole to be gainfully employed?
How many "techs" do you think are going to bail from AT&T, now that this story is out, because they don't want to become an asshole?
Thanks.
Lots of people work for shitty management. So what? It's a case of blaming the victim.
People just want a goddam job.
Look at Chick fil A. The owner is homophobic. Let's you and me go beat the shit out of his employees over it.
As for the remark you mention, I find it to be offensive, irrelevant, and not mine.
And, in your world, management = tech
How in-fucking-sane are you?
Do you even know what the fuck a tech does?
Shithead.
That's like Dish@ having to pony up for something and you want to bitch-slap the person who puts up the satellite dishes.
Jerk.
... feed the tuna mayo.
Why the hell don't we all just give it up and sign off on FOIA to each other?
I mean, all the people on the planet.
I'll know your shit; mine; theirs and everybody can have mine and stuff.

Right, and, I'll tell you what's a bitch:
American companies are subject to attack by people just like you and me, if we felt like it.
They aren't running stuff that's much better than we have.
The whole goddam Internet is porous.
