Because much of her business comes from Facebook sharing and postings, Amy has been in fear that her page would be removed and her livelihood decimated by repeated warnings, removals, and possible banning of her from Facebook altogether. Here is a sample of her artwork: http://themandalajourney.com/2011/11/22/peace-on-earth/ And another: http://themandalajourney.com/current-exhibitions/ Yet, Facebook in all it's wisdom continues to allow patently suggestive photos all the time--without interference. What do you make of that?

Echte onderzoeksjournalistiek op het gebied van nieuwe media lijkt zodoende ook redelijk uit de gratie te raken. Dit onderwerp lijkt mij persoonlijk een belangrijk nieuwsnovum voor welke krant en nieuwe media-journalist dan ook. Fuchs zei: “the young generation does not value privacy anyhow“.

Great post! I was wondering, if I delete my account will my name disappear from the messeges in other peoples inbox?
