Status update! Facebook has changed YOUR email address... without telling 900million users
f you haven't looked closely at your Facebook contact information in a while, then it may come as a surprise.
The social network with 900 million profiles, has taken it upon itself to change users' email addresses and replace it with one that ends in '@facebook .com'.
The changeover happened today, with each individual's personal email account being hidden in place of the one Facebook thinks you should use.
It means that anyone who searches for you on Facebook and wanted to send an email will now only be able to see @facebook.com - unless you manually revert.
This means the email will come via Facebook messages instead of another account.
Technology blogs lit up after outraged users noticed the change had occurred.
'Don’t do this again,' wrote Gizmodo while Forbes.com declared it 'presumptuous'.
Facebook claimed the change is to protect users' privacy and security by not displaying a personal email address but the site's more generic one.

Thanks for the info. I am going to check mine now. Actually I was always a little leary of posting my real email address on Facebook as there are a LOT of crazys who I don't really want finding out how to contact me so perhaps in my case it's all right to make that change. I realize that 'Facebook Founder' is hooked up with Google which is CIA spyware. In fact, please everyone, use IXQUICK HTTPS, for your search engine as they don't record your p.c. number as the other search engines do. Thanks and Love, Yvonne

all this fear mongering yet I see facebook as another venue to vent our issues, messages' and information. every internet, social site, spies on us so what's a big deal about facebook ~?~
mine still original and not changed.............................I don't get it.
There's nothing here either;D
No need to change..
Yes, I've noticed that people who plaster stuff all over their Facebook DO NOT have lives. I also think that they're rather egotistical.
State of the times people are money to google and facebook and all other corporation start out meaning well until money governs it
You can be sure when money is involved and affects it The Cabal are behind it and it is all for bad intentions
That is what we are here to stop and guess what , we are winning, albeit it does not look like that right now ,,Not long now
Namaste

I stopped posting on Facebook. Now, I just write "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" to people.
