Tinfoil hat question

[Bwana]

I recall discussion on here some months ago suggesting that Facebook's Messenger on the mobile app was a wicked thing not to be used because...

I don't recall what the because was, nor why some of you techie folks suggested not using it.

Is it still a bad thing or not?

Some people say your children will be taken in the night and sold in a slave market.

There's lots of opinions out there but this one seems prevalent these days.

Well, it's a DEAD link for me.

"404 - Oh no! We couldn’t find that page. Maybe try a search?"

Maybe they took the page in the night along with the kids. ;)

Works fine with Apple. Probably a Windows 10 thing. ;) :D

I gotta wonder how many different ways we need to 'talk' to each other? I could probably do all the communicating I need to do with a rotary dial telephone.
