      @rw Or as I have recently come to calling it: NSA+Facebook.

      Facebook users are protected from the NSA by the whims of facebook policy. #GnuSocial users are not protected at all.

      @zoowar You're forgetting the right to pseudonymity on !GNUsocial, I believe .)

      @zoowar Protected from surveillance by whims of site admins' policies is true of every site, subject to the depth of the stack that site's admins actually control and the admins' skill. One is likely no worse off because they use GS instead of FB. @mmn

      Actually, based on the breadth and depth of the info FB collects and the number of sites using its data-collection tools, GS users' data is more at risk from FB than from their GS site.

      The clan I joined in Elder Scrolls uses facebook. I was able to create a pseudonym on facebook, it just looks like a real name.

      Your #gnusocial feed/content is public, not subject to the whims of admin/site policy.

      @zoowar True, content is public, but not more important info about you such as the various IP addresses you connect from or your IDcard info or the near complete list of sites you visit.

      @zoowar FOAF is just a contact list, which used to be public on FB, too. Has that changed?

      @zoowar There's no reason to assume that fake identity will continue to exist, as fake names explicitly go against the #ECLA (end customer license agreement) with #Facebook.

      Also, I believe you need to supply a phone number nowadays when registering with Facebook, or didn't you have to do that?

      While I haven't looked into facebook policy, I expect that what is collected and shared is documented somewhere and that there are options to opt-out of certain data collection modes. Users may be oblivious to this policy, but that's just humans being human. Also, facebook can stand up to authoritative requests for data because it is well funded and has a deep legal team. I doubt any #gnusocial site could stand up to an authoritative request for data. At least indy doesn't record ip addresses.

      I created my account several months ago (i.e. very recently). I was not required to provide a verifiable phone number.

      @zoowar @lnxw48 the best way to stand up to data requests is not to have it in the first place.

      @kat @zoowar @lnxw48 I also don't record IP addresses as all access log files are set to /dev/null.

      @mmn #nsabook is shorter and suits more for #facebook coorperating with the #NSA.
