Xenoblade is COMING TO AMERICA

[Sacred Jellybean]

BTW, I should point out, that if you "unlike" a company most of that damage is undone. For example that company can't send you email anymore or look at pics of your wild night in Vegas last week. The only thing is you have to find the original like button in order to unclick it and re cage all the Facebook daemons.

This is purely anecdotal, but there are dozens of "liked" pages on my profile. Most if not all were imported in when facebook updated itself, and parsed out all of the in users' interests (which were originally typed in manually) and assigned them to liked pages. If you had Tom Waits or Terminator listed on your favorite music or movies sections, that text was cleared and you'd just get an icon that showed that interest.

Anyway, the only hassle created by these are that once every month or so, you might get one or two messages from these various pages promoting something. Mostly they're filtered out of your personal inbox, and I've never received an actual e-mail from facebook that was written / sent by a "liked" page. I see friends that like pages all the time and have never gotten anything from their pages. The most my own do is show up my news feed, but I can easily unsubscribe or unlike them.

I don't doubt that data mining is occuring though, but just don't put up anything you care about people knowing. Common sense.
