It's about time, legal action was taken! I have been arguing for sometime that FB, and the Personal Data Mining they are responsible for, is a direct violation of our 4th Amendment Rights! 
And when the state of California wins this case I will spearhead the movement in Colorado, it's about time damn it-thank God, I am not the only legal mind in this country, who has seen this and demanded action for the direct violation FB has been a part of.

Good for these people!  I hope they sue the daylights out of this ongoing criminal enterprise known as facebook and also show up how it has merged with the government agencies which use it as well. Remember congressman Wiener did nothing wrong and yet he was set up and knocked down by facebook!  They can destroy a popular congressman and make the rest of the congress cower in fear.  This is what facebook is this is what they do.  They are retro, they get people in touch with all the losers of our past.  When we leave high school we should leave our past and become mature adults in the real world and learn and grow. Each new station in life can be a new opportunity to change and grow and try a new persona.  This is one way we grow.  All the world's a stage and each actor plays many parts said Shakespeare.  We try on a new part one day and find delight in a new power over our life.  This is much harder to do amongst our family and friends who tend to hold us in place.  Identity can be wonderful but it is also limiting.  Sometimes we need to allow ourselves to fall into the abyss of life to grow.  I joined the Navy. Each new duty station became a chance to grow be take on a new persona.  I left the Navy and went to Denver to go to DADC tech school.  I went back and forth to Denver and each time new friends and experiences.  Don't be afraid to grow.  And don't bother with stupid retro operations like facebook.  Now they've got timeline!  Anybody who wants to know anything about you can look you up on this stupid website and think they will have a handle on you and push your buttons!  Good luck with that!  If I ever find out facebook has done something about me without my permission I will join up in this lawsuit.

I hope the entire company goes out of business. Nothing productive is created from Facebook.
