I have never been heavily involved in admin workings or musings on Dr. Bob. I've been posting since late last winter early spring and have found friends and support here.
I signed the no tweet list earlier this year. Is there no honoring of this agreement? Is their no respect for the feelings and wishes of some of the posters here who have requested, for various reasons, at least a sense of privacy and some control over their posts?
The icons can go away as easily and quickly as they appeared. Why not? This is not irreversible. Besides, what is to be gained by this new way of sharing through facebook and twitter?
One poster aptly pointed out the abuse potential of these icons--for bullying or outing. I do know, as some have pointed out, there is no real internet privacy. However, before one would really have to make a pointed effort to dig and connect username to person or to share posts.
I really do not understand, and I post here today in the hopes that this can be rectified.
