Hmm. I was pondering becoming a criminal, but prudence would dictate that I first get rid of my Facebook profile. No can do. I guess I’ll remain an upstanding citizen.
Because of Facebook, I discovered an entire branch of my family that I didn’t even know existed (though I’d suspected as much thanks the rarity of my surname).
A good friend of mine found the identity of a woman’s rapist via Facebook.
He had gone to the bars with a group of female acquaintances and one of them brought a man back to the hotel with them. She woke up to discover she had been raped and thankfully my friend’s talent for casual had conversation previously revealed the man’s name and major at our university. He was able to track him down and recognize the rapist’s Facebook picture for the police.
