FACEBOOK USERS, ANGRY OVER NEW PRIVACY SETTINGS, CAMPAIGN FOR 'QUIT FACEBOOK DAY'-- WILL YOU DELETE YOUR ACCOUNT TOO?

A group of dissatisfied Facebook users have teamed up in an effort to organize a mass, coordinated exodus from Facebook--and they're using social networks to do it.
Their site, QuitFacebookDay.com, asks users to "commit to quit" Facebook on May 31 by signing their name or Twitter handle to the list of pledges.
The cause has attracted several hundred pledges--about 780 at the time of writing.
There's also a Facebook Page devoted to the planned exit.
"If you agree that Facebook doesn't respect you, your personal data or the future of the Web, you may want to join us," QuitFacebookDay.com explains.
Will you quit too? Hmmm.
