Drivers charged with drink-driving will be named and shamed on Twitter. I'll just type that again: Drivers CHARGED with drink-driving ... What are they going to do with drivers who are CONVICTED of it? Unfriend them on FaceBook?
If a young lady is charged will they allow her to pull one of those God awful pouting poses? BTW, Evobarrow you're not alone, I don't do Faceache or Twatter either.
Surely that can't be legal ? There will almost certainly be some sort of human rights issue there... Anyone from the legal profession care to comment ?
By which I mean... A charge is basically an official, but unproved, accusation. I agree that people who are convicted deserve everything they get, but this seems to assume that everyone charged will be found guilty. What ever happened to "innocent until proved guilty" ?
As important and refreshing as it is to hear about the principled stand that many people are taking against the evil that is "keeping in touch electronically" ... ... are many people concerned that people charged, but not convicted, of an offence are being potentially libelled and certainly pre-judged in respect of their alleged offence? (In Twitter at least - I believe about twelve people across the World use it but perhaps it's more than that?)
The young of today will rue the shite they posted on whatever come the day they are old enough to realise.
True, boots. Should I have made the thread about how stupid Twitter and FaceBook are, then? Sorry for posting the wrong thread!
I think Facebook is useful for families that are spread all over to keep in touch, but some of the stuff you see that kids are posting is shocking. You just know they will regret it but you cannot tell them anything. Facebook and Twitter are probably good if used appropriately. I think people get carried away and dont understand their vulnerability.
before you start @Baldyboy i only liked because i liked the idea of it in a non sexual manner. i is married and totally unavailable.
