Are you guys sure you hate Facebook for privacy reasons and not becuase it is Google's nemesis?, becuase when I see someone complaining for Facebook and is using an Android phone with a GMail account there is something wrong.

I hate Facebook for other reasons than Google. Farmville spam of yore comes to mind. Stupid permission changes constantly is another.

I use iOS by the way. Still have a gmail account but that might not last long. Moving email is a bit harder than deleting an app off my home screen.

Farmville spam depends of your contacts and you can stop get it them easily, farmville is dead anyway, the stupid permission changes also exist in Google, they have changed them as often as Facebook, so, you must hate Google as equal I suppose.

To be honest I nuked Facebook at the height of farmville spam (I don't remember it being filterable at that time but could be wrong). Just couldn't care about Facebook anymore so deleted the account. So if its better now great, but I just have a finite amount of time in life to deal with computers and Facebook was becoming too big of a timesink.

Theres a reason I'm looking to replace gmail after being a "beta" invitee from ages ago. But its a long term project as I have to migrate both to new email account and also update countless logins to use it. Pretty much on the back burner for the moment.

If you don't care about Facebook anymore (for good or bad), why would you care then if they adquired Move? sounds illogical to me.

Its more I'd rather not give them any more of my data. Illogical sure, but thats just how I feel about things. I'm not going to be able to convince anyone of the rationality of it I'm sure.
