    Facebook "Like" Button Declared Illegal

    because you dont have to click the like button. a non-facebook website which has the "like" button on it is trackable by facebook. so facebook knows the ip and knows how long you were on it and even what site you went to next.

    Add Facebook like button on reviews?

    Say I'm on facebook, and I click the 'like' button on CNN news' site, or on Wikileaks' site or on ATI's or Nvidia's.
    From there onwards, everytime CNN, Wikileaks, ATI or Nvidia post any update it will automatically be visible on my facebook with a link to click if I want to read all the details.
    If I think that CNN's link (or TPU's for all that matters) might interest someone else who is not subscribed to CNN (or registered on TPU) I can share that link with them, hence getting more traffic to the site.

    The bolded part, and the update explanation I gave to Kreij. ie if one 'like' a review then any updates will be automatically added to one's facebook page to read and if they want also share with other people.
    If one doesn't want to read them, just don't click the link on your facebook.
    If one doesn't even want this, don't click the 'like' button on TPU.
    If one doesn't like facebook don't get a facebook account at all. *Smile Do scams originate from clicking on the message button in Facebook? :)

    Fact is as I mentioned earlier arguing on the pros/cons of facebook is not of topic here and is irrelevant to this thread.
    It's just a button we're speaking about. And if implemented, no one will be forcing anybody else to click it and 'expose' any privacy.

    Add Facebook like button on reviews?

    What if this measure is implemented... so:

    --Those who are against it have the option of not clicking this famous like button, so they won't.

    --Those who were in favour can click it, and they will.

    Everybody will be happy, no? *Big Grin Do scams originate from clicking on the message button in Facebook? :D
