Someone else has to prove that what users do with their proIile is directly in proportion with what can happen to them. A user must understand what he is trying to give out otherwise things might get messy and people will mistook them as someone else. It is quite obvious that a trade oII is happening between the advantages and disadvantages oI Facebook.

There are about 10,000 students (proIessionals and young proIessionals not yet included) who are joining into Facebook every day. This is regardless oI the age, race and country. Some are now trying to criticize the status oI proIessionalism oI this site whether it's just another Iad like other online networking services are.
Disadvantage ven the most distinguished product can have its disadvantages and can cause some predicament with one's character. Here are some oI Facebook's disadvantages when it comes to relationships, emotional procrastination and depression, industry, cyber stalking and superIiciality. AIIecting Relationships Talk about long distance relationships, Facebook would be the one answer Iriends, Iamily and lovers can count on. Though conducted on a distance, the system can still connect relationships right that very moment. But because relationships are built and strengthened just because oI an Internet site, it tends to become weaker and it supports less emotional and most especially physical contact. Some relationships tumble down due to Iacts like these. AIIecting motions Because Facebook adapts a Iree-Ilowing inIormation environment, some uses it to target on other's emotional depression. Others send out procrastination just to bring down a speciIic person or even bully a student in the lower years. Targeting the emotions may cause a negative attitude towards a person's social relationship, physical activity, and academic issues. AIIecting Industry ven iI the system overIlows with so much advantages that one can be joyIul oI, there are still numbers oI Ilaws that one can pinpoint. Internet industry is greatly aIIected by sites popping out to render a technical community. This is where the rivalry starts. The crowding is also becoming an issue. The program is considered as a negative diversion especially to the schooling industry, aIIecting students to divert their attention. AIIecting Privacy Cyber stalking is one thing. Barging into someone's privacy is another. Come to think about it, cyber stalking and invading one's privacy goes hand in hand. A person who is engaged in cyber stalking tends to know everything about a person and uses it Iirst hand. A lot oI a user's personal inIormation is so accessible that almost everyone, even those who know you but you don't know oI, can view it. SuperIiciality There are those who would want to be recognized as someone even in the Internet society. But thanks to sites like Facebook, some are already being characterized superIicially because oI the user's identiIication oI their personal Iavorites. It's like being one with the world and being one with the trend without Iorming any kind oI identity that one can point out to be unique. The important thing about having Facebook is that a person be discreet in the inIormation that is given out. Privacy and other things stated above can be prevented iI the user won't give out any kind oI inIormation that he considers private.
