Using a 2x4 to get Facebook's attention

-

Hundreds of Facebook groups hijacked


Every group on FB has an administrator.  If/when the admin steps down, unless they replace themselves with a new admin, there's an open slot.


An organization called Control Your Info jumped into open slots on 100's of open slots -- in effect hijacking them.

Then  Control Your Info went public -- apparently benevolently.


Sometimes it takes a 2x4 up-aside-the-head to get someone's attention.  I suspect that FB will now change how admin's are administered.
