  • spark, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Facebook is starting to sound like Big Brother. The following is from their Privacy Policy.....

    "Facebook also collects information about you from other sources, such as newspapers and instant messaging services. This information is gathered regardless of your use of the Web Site."

  • mburns, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0So some guy gets 'from a friend' leaked source code and digg links to it? Like the site or not, it isn't free or open code to be viewing.

    Lame. No digg.

  • erissiva, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I swear - if the whole code gets releases and 183 MySpace lookalikes get released, I will slit my wrists.
  • ThinkBox, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Monitoring stalkers -

  • plumeria, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0It most certainly is not brilliant code, no.
  • inkninja, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This would only be interesting if it were the full source and, judging by profile.phps alone, it's not brilliant code...
  • rudegeek, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Yup, this code is poor written. :P

  • casabona, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0i can- they would most likely end up with at least a cease and desist letter, or maybe even more since the original source already got one.
  • anateus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I can't belive no one mirrored it.
  • spark, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"Paul Janzer"
