Is Richard on Facebook?
 
Hi GNU Guys,

Richard mentioned not to use Facebook, which is actually very good, but ... Is Richard on Facebook?

here a link:
https://www.facebook.com/richard.stallman.96

Anyone, no "surveillance" for me, no facebook. And you? Really GNU?

Its not Richard Stallman, its just somebody faking it with publicly available photos

I have never had a Facebook account. There is a Facebook account called "Richard Stallman", but it is an impostor.

R.S. could try to make it deleted. Is it possible?

If you scroll down on that page you'll realize there are a bunch of profiles pretending to be Richard Stallman in FB. I doubt FB will care whether these are fake profiles or not, honestly.

I thought fecalbook was all about routing out fakes and ensuring it's database was full of real peoples' data?

I should't think that RMS cares whether people pretend to be him on farcebook or not -- the people who matter will know it's not him anyway.

If that many Torvalds are on it, it must be ok, so I take it all back...
