>> However, where I see FB being the bigger problem is because people are all too quick to provide private info that is tied directly to their identity.

Email, texts and phone calls are all tied to your identity, and most (not all, but most) people posting on Facebook post harmless shit -- pictures of their dogs and cats and maybe aging grandparents. Pretty tame, isn't it? Surely, no one is posting their medical history or tax data there.

The real danger is in communications people believe to be private but are not.
