10 It should be pointed out that anonymity, and even pseudonymity are
11 basically against Facebook terms of service, due to having what they
12 call a "Real Names Policy".
13
14 If somebody suspects your Facebook Identity is not representative of a
15 real person, they can report the account as a Fake.
16
17 Facebook will then suspend your account until you can prove your
18 identity.
19
20 In some cases, Facebook will even challenge certain spellings of your
21 real name if they think its "weird", regardless of how much it is your
22 legal name.
23
24 None of the features Facebook provides in terms of "Privacy" should be
25 considered real privacy either. They're conveniences, because there is
26 no real security or privacy on Facebook.
27
28 Regulate everything you send to Facebook at a mental level.
29
30 ( This is mostly just the limitations of the internet and technology in
31 general, but it really has to be repeatedly re-stated around Facebook )
32
33 Have fun, and Good luck.
