I will try that also, thank you.

That is uber WRONG!!!! Although, we probably waived that privacy when we clicked "Agree" cuz not too many people read those terms. Tomorrow I get my face off this avi.

Hey Mis73 I also tried that and it also says I don't have permission , thankyou any way I just don't get why everybody else can and it gives me a problem I know I am not computer littarate but I have posted before, I can't even post in my pics at all , thank you like I said anyway for trying to help at least me.

Buckling up for the information highway -- it's a vulnerable place.....

Unbelievable..... Glad I don't blog, have my picture, name, location.... Pretty soon, our PMs will show up somewhere!!!

My photos are gone as of a couple days ago. As soon as the blogs are back up, I'll be deleting mine entirely.

It's such a shame..... This has been such a great support system, and now it feels somewhat, tainted.

Okay, I admit this pisses me off some. If I want to say something on twitter I'll join the mofo. If one of my posts on here shows up on twitter I won't be happy. That is uncalled for.

Having a unpleasant morning.........

Mis-

You've been finding some things I want to protect myself against. Would you detail what actions you are taking so that I can make sure I check all my stuff? This is the only forum I've ever belonged to do I don't want to miss something.

Thanks so much!

The pictures I honestly found by accident. I was searching "lap band" and "photos" and I found that article with the pictures by sheer luck.

The Twitter I found because on my own Twitter, I saw a girl who had both MS and had WLS (like me!). When I looked at who she followed, LapBand Talk was one. So of course I had a look and there it was.

Just changed my profile pic. It's sad that Big Brother is always watching.

Are you guys aware of the fact LapBand Talk has a Twitter? Are you also aware of the fact our threads and blog posts are fed onto it?? If you type it here' date=' or on your blog here, it can and does end up on their Twitter feed. https://twitter.com/LapBandTalk

I don't know how to tweet. Maybe Alex needs to be told that people don't want their life on tweet.

People on this forum post pictures, tell their life's journey with obesity, diseases, even family matters, or love affairs...all kinds of info is contributed....

And ANYONE in the whole wide world can log on and read - view what we freely post about ourselves...

Twitter or anything else for that matter is no different...you post it...anyone can read it....

If you go to your "Profile Page" and check settings, you will see Facebook and twitter options there...

Stop and think how popular facebook is, and ask yourself how did Mark Zuckerberg make so much money, since you do not pay a fee to join facebook?

Does not matter what your security lockouts are set to, all your information is being sold off to big brother....your "likes" what you "read" where you "Travel", "Music" "Friends" "Education" it's ALL there......and it is available to those willing to pay for it....

I was trying to locate a old College buddy once...all I had was a name and hometown....I could not believe the trail of information I was able to collect on the internet, through his work history, his children, home sales, mortgages, permit applications for home improvements, Taxes, you name it...finally right down to home address, phone #, a picture of his home from the street view, and also a photo's of him.

And I'm not a hacker...it was all there, just follow the trail....and it was very easy.

Yeah, you always have to watch out because that part I'm is in mouse print!
