I don’t like Facebook because I’m a very private person. However, you hear everyone talking about it. You see and listen to people documenting their daily lives on a public wall for all to read. If you’re tired of hearing how great it is, then today’s infographic is for you. This infographic details all the failures the company has experienced. [...]
Just a few days ago, hackers shut down Bank of America, and we couldn’t be more pleased. I mean, really — a $5 surcharge every time you use your debit card? That’s just ridiculous.
