Facebook Offers Easy Commenting Alternative

Posted by timothy on from the disqus-among-yourselves dept.

Spice Consumer writes "Facebook has just unveiled a 'new system (that) lets website owners replace their current commenting system with Facebook's simply by dropping in a few lines of JavaScript.' How widely adopted this new system becomes could greatly affect Facebook's already entrenched position on the web and further compromise individual users' privacy."

    Because we value privacy. Facebook and co. sell your information to the highest bidder.

    Also, we still have things like email, telephones, IM clients, and actually walking to a friends house to keep in touch with friends, and not let a dumb timesink called Facebook do it all for us superficially.

    And get off my lawn!!!
