Social Networking gone too far??!

[alch3miss]

So I was on facebook today, and a friend of mine posted a status mentioning a "new" website, Spokeo.com. Apparently this website contains your information, home phone number, physical home address, occupation, social information.

Quickly upon finding myself I deleted myself through their Privacy link. I found information of where I live, how long I lived there, marital status, my homes value. There were other links there as well but you need to pay a fee to unlock more of these information links.

Just my thoughts-- this is some really creepy stuff. But in this day and age, privacy is becoming something that we are giving up by being on these social networking sites.
