As bookkeepers should we be so keen to advertise on Facebook. As business should we consider our Social Footprint and Data responsiiblity?
As Business woman and a parent I am deeply disturbed about Channel 4 Dispatches inside Facebook - promoting child abuse content and refusing to take it down even at the request of NSPCC.

I totally support Retail Excellence a body in Ireland who represent retail in Ireland now suspending their partnership with Facebook.
A qoute from RTE and Retail Excellence
"Based on the revelations from Channel 4 Dispatches documentary last evening, we have decided to suspend our partnership with Facebook until further notice," the group's chief executive Lorraine Higgins said.
"As a representative body which promotes standards of excellence amongst retailers it would be wrong for us to continue our partnership where they have fallen short," Lorraine Higgins said.
"On that basis, we will not be working with Facebook until we are satisfied their policies have been overhauled regarding the posting of violent and abusive content for commercial gain," she added.

other points to consider about Facebook
1) Is it safe to have a Facebook App on your business computer. You should consider all the private client information you hold on your clients as they have acknowledge they pull data even if you do not sign up.
