Anti-Russian sanctions from Facebook?

Has the CIA started to demand identity documents via Facebook?

Anti-Russian sanctions from Facebook?


History that is. Yesterday, a friend of mine, as usual, without expecting a trick, tried to go to her page on social networks "Facebook". But it was not there. Access there was closed. The message from the site administration, written explicitly in the ultimatum form, read:



Further more. When the woman tried to find out the reasons for the misunderstanding through technical support, she was told:



I quote:

"You need to attach a copy state ID cards with photoso that we can confirm your real name. This document must contain your full name, photo and date of birth. "


It is highly doubtful that social networks have the right to demand such documents. What is it: the new "face control" in American style or the collection of information about Russian citizens by the US federal bodies? ..

My acquaintance (by the way, far from being a simple original, with humor) decided to act logically: they say, if you want a photo, get it! And sent a response letter with an excerpt from the law and the following attachment:



The administration of American social networks did not appreciate the humor and continued in its spirit:



In short, the heroine of my story could not get to her page. I had to start a new account ...

PS According to media reports, a similar "incident" has already taken place. In October, the 2013 mass media distributed information about the “erroneous demand” by the Facebook administration of identity cards to its users. Then the social network brought a public apology.



However, this was a year ago. So the "mistake" repeats again?

    But when I got a sensor on my smartphones for taking a fingerprint for access, I immediately had a question about spreading this information further than a smartphone

      it is strange that the code for the bank account and the duplicate keys to the apartment have not yet been requested, but progress cannot be stopped, as they say, so we are getting ready.

      Soon your smartphone will require you to spit on the screen to remove the DNA. Then it will ask you to put it on for analysis and more. As a result, you will get tired of it and you will get your old disk phone out of the shed laughing

        Hi!

        Well, why so categorically, although there is an idea that the next model of iPhone will weigh more than a disk phone, and overtake it in size.

          Do not worry. There are a bunch of adapters for connecting conventional SLTs to work with the VOIP protocol. Incl. and in a pulsed TA mode. Yes, you must have an optical modem at home. After all, you do not directly "push" the optics into the computer. If the modem does not have a phone connector, you just need to change it to a modem with such a connector. And that's all.

            And we have long ago laid the optics to the villages. And this year, in the region, we are completing the replacement of the last 5 ATCKs with DVDM equipment (for non-telecom operators - everything works "via the Internet").

                Not really lucky. Optics extended To the villages, to the former telephone exchanges. And from there, ADSL copper. But in every village. And optics in the private sector is really very expensive. In addition, the villages are dying out, they just get the money thrown away. But the real speed is up to 16 Mbps. In principle, enough. And cities are actively replacing copper subscriber lines with optics.

        Return nokia 6300 at least! But seriously - I'm already sick of all these innovations in technology ... I know what it is for. So that I no longer understand all of these sensors, tracking systems (phone, pulse, eyes, gestures, search queries, network passwords, contact details; including marital status, family composition, etc.) and surrendered to the will of developers. And then they would know everything about me - location, eye color, hobbies, fingerprints ... It is likely that they already know. This is probably paranoia.

    You will laugh, but a month ago the PokerStars gaming site suddenly demanded the same from me ... To get to my account I was offered to send a PHOTO (!!!) of a copy of my ID, and up to my registration ... I demanded an explanation. .. After a long correspondence, which, by the way, was not crowned with anything (they referred to the "laws of the Isle of Man" (in my opinion, Maine, but I can be wrong), on which PokerStars are allegedly registered), I just sent them nafig and registered a new account .. Fortunately, there were some mere "kopecks" left on the old one - let them choke ...
    But, surprisingly, reading the article now, I noted that the Starz moderators answered me with almost the same "polite and smart" words and phrases as the author of the article ...
    It seems that they seriously decided to start collecting information through all the sites at hand ...

So, he is on the photo there in uniform with colleagues. So he signed "in the sands of Karakal". As it turned out, there is a similar desert in Iraq and this poor Canadian was then dragged through interrogations and forbidden to correspond with a friend. democracy, panymash :)))) Everyone tried to find out what the Russian officers were doing there :)))) and it was not too lazy for amers to wool the Internet in search of such photos

    I'm afraid to say unequivocally (laughter is by no means my topic), but it is very likely that American science has not yet worked out the topic of "the specifics of Russian humor", since officially (I assume almost confidently) the possibility of such has not yet been confirmed either by the White House or by any prestigious public organizations in the United States. So no need to joke with Facebooks and American offices in general, or you will have to knock the rapids of The Hague and other colorful ships.

    If on the networks, then know that you are under a magnifying glass of intelligence. The card library has long been wound up on everyone and replenished daily, you need to be fenced off from foreign social networks, following the example of China, otherwise wait for trouble.

      Soon it will be so - there will be state control over the Internet, following the example of Chinese comrades

    In Yandex, such a procedure is standard, in the case of a hacking box or the inability to recover the password yourself.

      laughing laughing laughing for sure, I recovered the passwords in the networks only because of the events in Ukraine, so many people close from there would have stayed on the sites until smart people enlightened about topvar and kolonelkassada. I look in to find out if they are alive: (((

    I had previously suspected the weirdness of social networks, especially mobile applications. The first thing that was perplexing, you download the game, and she needs access to the location what what for? And it’s not entirely in advertising how many justify this. Eduard Snezhny confirmed the guesses.

    Retired from all social networks quite a while ago and nothing, I live perfectly not buzzing. In general, I think that the network is foreign and also the contact is trash.

    My Facebook has long been in sanctions - I retired from there. It is clear that the information remained there, but there was really nothing. He signed up for Twitter in 2010, and did not go anymore (by the way, he read that more than half of the inhabitants of Twitter do not write anything). Yes, and more about facebooks, twitter more in the news say. And very intrusive.

    After reading the comments, I come to the conclusion: we are successfully forming a paranoid society from us. I myself suffer.

    Return nokia 6300 at least! But seriously - I'm already sick of all these innovations in technology ... I know what it is for. So that I no longer understand all of these sensors, tracking systems (phone, pulse, eyes, gestures, search queries, network passwords, contact details; including marital status, family composition, etc.) and surrendered to the will of developers. And then they would know everything about me - location, eye color, hobbies, fingerprints ... It is likely that they already know. This is probably paranoia.


    Do not worry! You are absolutely healthy. This is reality....

    I don’t understand why these social networks are needed. Personally, in addition to rejection and disgust, they do not cause me anything!

    Why did Luntik introduce Twitter and Facebook fashion in the government?
    Looks like Maxim asked for the guys from the NSA and the CIA. They say they are sewn up at work, once they seek out your decrees and decisions on newspapers. So write immediately to them. On Facebook and Twitter!

    I wanted the bot man to spoil in the comments, failed :-)))
    Troubles of torment :-)))
    And this is not a man, the IRL bot, but the vile FB is to blame :-)))
    FB user himself, no one asked for any documents. They ask for a photo, because FB was created initially for friendships, not anonymous shit in the comments :-)))
