    If user's mouth only moves when someone else has their hand up the user's ass.

    Facebook is overdue to be hacked in a manner that compromises user data and make the people who use it regret that association.

    Freedom of association is a basic right abridged for profit by services like Facebook. Whomever I choose to associate with or not is no one's business but my own. You would think businesses would catch on to this risk faster than individuals, but thus far, they have not.

    Just assume that if you don't know them personally in real life, then they're a sockpuppet.

    the goal was to figure this out so I could report a fake account.

    So, you want to "report a fake account"(sock puppet?), but you have no idea how to "determine" if it is "a fake account"?

    So, NMSquirrel, how exactly did you "figure...out" that the "account" that you want to "report" is "fake"?
