Facebook bans breastfeeding pics

The Globe and Mail has a story on how Facebook is banning pictures of mothers who breastfeed. Leaving aside the whole meta-Facebook argument, I don't see why Facebook has its panties up in such a bunch.

Sure they are an American company, and sure they are even more prudish then Canadians, but get a grip. I am of the camp that breastfeeding is a perfectly natural, normal thing. If a women wants to breastfeed in the mall, the library, or post her pictures on Facebook for her friends and family to see, let her. Who cares, its her privacy, let her violate it herself. Breastfeeding is not of a sexual natural, so we shouldn't stigmatize it.

Breasts are not our enemy.

The "zero-day" vulnerability, which came to light last week, allows criminals to take over victims' machines simply by steering them to infected Web sites; users don't have to download anything for their computers to get infected, which makes the flaw in Internet Explorer's programming code so dangerous. Internet Explorer is the world's most widely used Web browser.

While the exploits and patches for Microsoft patches have been reduced greatly over the past year or two, there are still way too many.

This is why I use Firefox, and to some extent Chrome.

Don't use IE!
