they finally listened and gave us the option to switch off the timeline. i honestly didnt think they would actually pull it off but we did it. keep an eye on your settings just to make sure they stick to their word.

MILLIONS OF PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD DO NOT LIKE THE TIMELINE. WE ARE ASKING FOR A GRACE PERIOD TO (YOU DECIDE HOW MUCH TIME) TO TRY TO GET USED TO IT, BUT IF WE CAN'T OR JUST DON'T WANT IT, WE WOULD LIKE YOU (FACEBOOK) TO GIVE US THE OPTION TO SWITCH BACK. PLEASE DON'T OVERLOOK THIS AS A POSSIBILITY. YOU WOULD CHANGE THE WAY THE WORLD LOOKS AT THE FACEBOOK CORPORATION, IF YOU CARE ABOUT THAT AT ALL. MOST OF THE WORLD IS OF THE OPINION THAT YOU DON'T CARE. WELL, THERE ARE MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD THAT USE FACEBOOK, SO YOU SHOULD CARE, A LOT. PLEASE RESPECT THE MILLIONS THAT NEED THE TIME TO TRY THE TIMELINE AND PLEASE RESPECT THEIR CHOICE TO SWITCH BACK TO THE PRESENT STYLE IF THEY CHOOSE TO. THE USERS MADE YOU THE CORPORATION THAT YOU'VE BECOME AND GIVING US THAT GRACE PERIOD WOULD SHOW THAT YOU DO CARE ABOUT THE PEOPLE WHO MADE YOU RICH AND FACEBOOK USERS WOULD VERY MUCH APPRECIATE THAT. I RECOMMEND THAT YOU LISTEN OR PEOPLE WILL LEAVE FACEBOOK AND HIT YOU WHERE YOU LIVE; IN YOUR WALLET. ---------------- Sincerely, [Your name]

I don't like ppl knowing what time I post. date is fine but time is nobody business. that allows criminals to know where you are or if you are home or when I post I am not asleep. then I am bombed with calls. I want my privacy.
