Facebook "Like" is Appearing on every page, what's up with that?

I just noticed this.

Why is the Facebook "Like" icon now appearing on every page I go to? Is FR now connected in some way to Facebook?

” FR is on Facebook. “

Hmmmmm....

Does that mean that *I*, by extension, am ‘on Facebook’???

Not sure I’m okay with that, after carefully avoiding any and all contact with ‘social networking’ sites... (privacy issues...)

They’re also working on a “dislike” button for blog excerpts...

I am hoping they make it optional.
I am tired of the prying going on, now, if you use Google, it fills out the fields as you type.

So how much of my typing ON MY COMPUTER is google intercepting and recording? If I open a DOS window, does google see/know that?

How the heck is google tied into the bios on my machine so that things I type are getting sent to them?

Nope. You'd have to join just as you do with the Yahoo FR Group.

We are? Oh good now the DU’ers will be over here in droves!

Maybe that’s why Jim posted:

“Free Republic is pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-Constitution, pro-Bill of Rights, pro-gun, pro-limited government, pro-private property rights, pro-limited taxes, pro-capitalism, pro-national defense, pro-freedom, and-pro America.”

I was wondering if maybe there was an influx of wacko’s infiltrating FR. Because “we” all know why we are here.

I'm not sure why it shows all the time but I do know icons like that are on news sites.

I'm hoping that we're still allowed to ask "why".

That's why.

Does that mean that everything posted on FR is now somehow linked to the FB page?

Not good,IMHO.
