One one hand, that's an insane rate for data, and it shouldn't cost that much. On the other hand, when you get 50 warning messages and your data turned off, but still push through and turn it back on so you can scroll through Facebook, you've made a mistake. Many people have experienced a frustrating time someone went full Karen, like this Karen who tailgated a driver right into a speed trap.

This one goes out to the heroes of every office, school and setting in need of general administration. The computer savvy, the IT people, the tech support and tech workers who know more about computers than everyone else and make Karen from accounting and Dave from sales look like the useless cave people that they are. But honestly, if you know literally anything about computers you'll probably get most of these. For more, here are excruciating moments of tech support gore as well as the story of a tech support worker whose manager threw out 40 computers not knowing what they were.

On one hand, having to call customer service, especially for a telecommunications company, can be a time wasting slog. On the other hand, some customers just call customer service for an opportunity to scream at someone.

The same chain-letter based hoax that floated around 2012 is back and scaring your family.

So, that's totally incorrect. Facebook has not threatened to make public the data contained in profiles and no mention has been made to charge for an upgraded privacy setting. Trust us. Their making a killing just doing what their doing.
And even if they were, please do not believe that a status update will serve as a legally binding request to keep a business away from data that users are voluntarily putting on its servers. That's not how things work.
Luckily, not everyone took it seriously.
While there may be water on Mars, don't believe everything you read on the internet today. Facebook is free and it...
The messaging became so widespread that the company itself had to come out and warn users not to believe the hype.
So, there you go. Your stuff won't be made public and status updates aren't binding legal statements.
Have a lovely day.
