stop facebooks real name policy ..stage names are used by people in show biz,bands,etc .. this policy is hurting people more then its protecting anyone .. there are other ways of achieving safety . no other social media is doing this and they are running fine..this policy has to change .. people friend each other willingly no one is forcing them to read peoples posts , names or associate with the people they report ..thats why theres an unfriend ,block features etc ..a lot of the reports are bogus .. but the requirement of a real name is just ridiculous ..your real name can be googled to get your home address for stalkers..so its not safer ..there's other ways
stop it! ban 'real' name policy or shut it down. this is anti-anonymity and egoism. add anonymity option now!

i just deleted my facebook today and i am never going on again. it just ruined my life that they forced me to have my real name or would delete everything. LIERALLY! i have a stalker and he just shared my facebook so several dangerous people and they all mentioned me and threatened my whole family and also spreaded lies and this guy isnt even in the same country as me, now i am looking for a new place to live! they all said they are going to put me on dark web to have someone rape and kill me. i kept facebook so i can still connect with family and friends because i didnt have phone numbers of some of the people, including an aunt who had cancer. this is what happens when they want you to use your real name. i have a new phone but now they manipuated somebody into giving them my phone number and im getting calls every ffew minutes from crazy numbers in many countries nd states, and since they said therye putting me on the dark web i am scared for my life and my family is terrified, they said people there will rape and kill me and my family. i dont know if i will even be alive in the next week PLUS i am homeless now. facebook needs to stop with the real name crap i dont know what they are thinking. this has destroyed everything. any sick person now can type into google your real name and get your facebook, by the way i had my privacy settings not to show me on search engines and it made absolutely no difference. nobody is safe on facebook. my whole family is under threat and just kicked me out and im under threat and there are lies abbout me everywhere, and pictures of me i dont know how they got them they must know people here. this has to change. so this doesnt happen to anybody else!!
