Facebook subscriptions - to what extent are they visible to others?

Q. Now I've noticed that there are three 'levels' of subscription you can have. One is for only important updates, another is for most updates, and the other is for all updates. Mine is currently by default set to 'most updates' on all of my friends... If I adjust it to receive all updates, will this change be made visible to that person?

A. No, they will not know.

How does facebook get money if signing up is free?

Q. When we use fb, we don't pay anything, so how does the facebook company get money and become rich?

A. It's all about Advertising and the revenue it brings in. No different to this site.

Everyone moans about it [personally it doesn't bother me] but what do you want?

A site that is free to use or one that you would have to pay a hefty subscription to use?

To give you some idea the amount of money it generates, I remember reading an article about ads on TV a few years back. Then it used to cost between £4 to 8,000 for a three minute slot depending on the time of day.

Also don't forget all advertising by a company is tax deductable! That's why we're all swamped with it.

How do I stop facebook posting my age when posting a comment?

Q. Whenever I post a comment on 9GAG or Memebase via my Facebook it shows my age. Which I don't want hundreds of people knowing (kinda invading my privacy in my eyes.) So is there a way to disable it?

A. Age is nothing, it's only a number! I'm 72, so what?

Anyway go into your profile and remove your age
or set the privacy to only you.

Will facebook and the police track down someone who made a fake facebook account?

Q. My friend had a facebook account and then deactivated it and 2 days later we found out that someone made a fake account of him. HIs mom messaged the person who faked the account and the person just deactivated their account. My friend's mom said in the message that she reported the fake account to facebook and the police but has not done it yet. If she does it, will the police get involved and track the person's IP Address down?

A. Yes they will track them down. We had a lecture about this kind of stuff in school this year. All you have to do is report what happened, and the police will do their best to help you.
We have those kinds of incidents all over the country as well.

People do it either for "fun", or out of anger with the victim.

You better watch out for this kind of stuff.

Is facebook really going to start charging money?

Q. I just read some things about Facebook charging money to use it! Is this true, or just a scam?

A. This is a stupid scam that goes around every few months. Facebook is and always will be free. They make money from advertisers. If they charged, I would guess 40-50% of users would leave the site, their ad revenues would go down, their advertisers would find another site to advertise on, and their profits would fall. Facebook is never going to charge users - that would be committing financial suicide

Why haven't I gotten anything official from the Facebook people saying this?

A. No that would NEVER happen.

They wouldn't make as much as they do now if they started to charge.
They have 300million active users right now, they have little advertising yet they make more a day then we could even dream of. If they started charging statistics show more then 80% of people would eventually become unactive. Facebook are smart people. THEY WOULD NEVER MAKE IT A PAYSITE. facebook is like the 3rd most popular website next to google and youtube. they want to keep it like that.
if it became a pay website facebook would be soon forgotten and people would wind back at myspace.
