Facebook Ethics

Facebook Ethics is a major branch of philosophy, encompassing right conduct and good life over the electronic medium Facebook. The guiding principle of Facebook ethics is that of exercising sound judgement and morality when establishing relationships, networking, or simply keeping in touch with old friends.

Examples of breaching Facebook ethics include:
- Posting inappropriate pictures of either yourself or friends engaged in raucous behavior, binge drinking, or doing illegal drugs.
- Posting nasty comments about ex boyfriends new girlfriends at an attempt to invoke jealousy, cause pain, insult the other party
- Incessantly posting on people's walls thereby shielding other people's comments and creating a monopoly on said person's wall
- Discussing insensitive topics that could be read by other people- examples include religion, politics, and racism/sexism
- Tagging friends in pictures that are less than flattering.
Brynne breached Facebook Ethics by the posting a blasphemous statement about the existence of God on my wall. Now all my Jesus jamming friends are going to be upset. I better delete the comment

You are always posting on my status and ruining the intent of the post, preventing further discussion and generally killing my mojo. I barely know you. You are a Facebook Troll.

Facebook Rape

Facebook Rape occurs when an individual leaves Facebook signed in and open to interference from a housemate, work collegue or other third party scumbag with nothing better to do.

Such rape often results in personal details and profile pictures being changed to hillarious, often false but in some cases, true information. High levels of damage occur when the third party has long periods of time in which to Rape your Facebook.
"Ah f*ck I left my facebook on and my details and picture have been tampered with in a hillarious manner against my will; I've been Facebook Raped!"

"Engaged?! Ive been Facebook Raped!"

"Favorite Movies: 'Farm Boys 2 - Pitch my Fork'?! Ive been Facebook Raped!"
