Birthdate on Facebook Profiles, Interesting? (Read 305 times)

2MuchEarthMemberBirthdate on Facebook Profiles, Interesting?
« on: 21.06.2018 at 22:28 [UT+1] »I love it when those on Facebook include their birthdate in their profiles. Little do they know how much info
that can provide, and provide an opportunity to do some kind of Identity Theft on that person.

Gender:I just added a friend of my sister's to Facebook, 2 weeks ago, who sent a Friend Request. Found out she's a
big cop lover, lots of posts praising cops. Obviously, I must have posted something on one of those posts
which had her defriending me. No great loss!
The culprit: her moon in I-wanna-be-a-cop-Scorpio! Restless individual for sure: Mars in bounce-off-the-walls
Gemini! And Mercury/Venus in Cancer. Sun in Leo.
Yes, I know this only presents personal placements, but just with that, I got a good feel for this woman.
I have a cousin that's a "Friend", and his Moon in Aquarius comes across loud and cloear.
How about you? Ever check out someone birthdate on Facebook and find some rather interesting insights intothat person?

return. Only one Face is depicted on Facebook and we all have many faces. I have a Capricorn Moon (in the
8th house( Face, and Aries Face, a Virgo face and a Piscean face. But it can be somewhat revealing with abirthdate in a Profile.

information.

It's up to them not to reveal their age, but most of my friends dont' bother whether their age is public, letalone theirpersonalities...

Gender:LainieMe too, for a couple of years I had an incorrect day and month (never added year) and I let astrologers judge
based on that info and be wrong as I do think people should use data without asking....also you should neverbe judged by your chart as you are not your chart only

You want to know who has correct birthday info? Ancestry.com

Bet you didn’t think that was a spot to verify

information huh? I was looking for a former roommate from college who was born in California. I had helped
her find her birth father when we were freshman but we lost contact after graduation. Typed her name inthinking I would see if she had gotten married and was very surprised her birth information came up with hermother’s maiden name.

Gender:I don’t get be any real good information or in real time , mine are delayed and I don’t list location if I do post .
Usually it’s simply the odd moan or pics of my food.
On here yes my chart has been seen but on other social media you won’t be able to know . I got hacked when I
was dating someone long distance in my 20s , I also did work for a pop band and was surprised by the info fansmanaged to glean.....so am cautious about what I put out there .
Work is interesting as you will always find out birth data even if your not looking for it , cake appear on
birthdays and you know when special events like kids are born or marriage etc . I don’t use work mates birth
data without permission but I do know it

You don’t have to use it. The information comes from the hospital you where born at. It is public information.
The dna info comes from relatives of yours. 2nd-3rd cousin matches can easily start a trail strait to you. You
don’t ever have to use a genetic dna service and someone can still “find” you. There are people using services
like gedmatch to find birth parents from closed adoptions.
There are no secrets anymore people.

You don’t have to use it. The information comes from the hospital you where born at. It is public information.
The dna info comes from relatives of yours. 2nd-3rd cousin matches can easily start a trail strait to you. You don’t ever have to use agenetic dna service and someone can still “find” you. There are people using services like gedmatch to find birth parents from closed
adoptions.

Yes they can find but it in reality it’s about if someone is happy to pay for that information and how much isyields. Uk birth certificates do not list the time of birth time also you need to know where in what
perish/hospital.
. I also know my 2nd 3rd cousins wouldn’t have donated dna for this purpose so it’s not a huge issue for me.
So whilst I know what your saying , and yes it’s possible it’s very unlikely there is much information there ,Most people aren’t as interested in information when they have to pay for it.
I have too much Scorpio and 12th House energy on my chart to not have have tracked down someone’s bothdata and other stuff to understand how much information you can find out about someone and how . I am also
not saying I don’t have like everyone data out there, however online you would be hard pressed to find out
sufficient data to create my chart .
You can also trace peole easily through things like telephone directories of a parent etc, and use their data tofind out about them, school info is also good .
So tons of stuff about someone, and everyone should know what’s out there about them, social media makes it
easy for most, most will never be arsed to go into a genealogy website etc if it’s not laid out in front of them .

overshare far too much.But yes as someone has just said privacy is gone. Everything is just out there now,drones even flying over your house taking photos. The worst is parents putting their kids all over facebook.

Tjeost interesting chart of all is of course is that of the Zuck's himself and it is easy to imagine that having
access to so much private information must mean an intoxicating temptation to use it......

Not really, no. I tend not to bother investigating, given that many probably put the wrong year in anyway. Plus,
unless there is some specific reason, I'm really not that interested.
I tell you what I have noticed though, I have more friends with birthdays in February (49 at the last count))
than any other month, and fewest in November - and those 3 are all Sagittarius. Weird that.
