Maybe you should avoid posting things like this in the future.

Person A: I could care less about politics.
Person B: Oh, so you’re interested in it? Me too. What is your stance on _____.

-Or-

Person A: I could care less about politics.
Person B: Oh, really? I couldn’t care less about it, I absolutely can’t stand politicians and their debates.

If you have a particularly dumb “Person A,” you may end up having to explain yourself, but most of the time it makes the offender think about what they said and realize that it is completely illogical.

Obviously, a lot of grammatical issues can’t be dealt with this way, but some can and it’s an easy way to get your point across without saying something like, “HEY! That’s wrong, stupid!”

If the page about the specific page is linked to at all then I think the link should only say “Operation SaturatEng” for recruitment purposes in order to avoid hijacking a large number of threads.

Not hijacking threads is my main concern as this will only work if we can get a large enough group together.

Speaking of which, I will not be starting this in November as I have not left myself enough time to do recruitment. I’m thinking maybe in the new year. If you know anybody else who might be interested then please do invite them along. A lot of people have blogged about this phrase but fewer seem prepared to try and do anything about it.

Finally, I’m not trying to stop the language evolving. I’m just trying to apply some selection criteria to that evolution .

I’m interested but I’m not sure I see enough posts on a daily basis to really come up with anything. But if enough people were interested it could really have an impact. But then again, I think the “evolution” of the language is probably unstoppable.

Oh and blogs should be targetted, too.

People submit information and entrust companies with the most private details on a global scale everyday. A lot of companies leak or sell such information on or distribute such details through international regions with poor security values and very little emphasis on personal privacy. With details such as mother’s maiden names, in my opinion this is a terrible security reference in the first place. Most people could easily and quickly reveal such information if the questions were disguised within a general conversation.

Facebook does offer you the option to restrict access to your profiles and to whom your information is available to. However in conjunction with what you stated, Facebook should inform their users of why and how such settings should be considered. I think this is aptly suggested in your statement:

“Whatever information you place on the net, think carefully about where else, that actually matters, you might use that information to establish who you are.”

Good read.
