Bettlejuice FB Post On General (LOCKED)

[x0r1987]

Was very interested in more detailed info.. Hope you dont mind me reffing back you BJ.,.. You did put the thought in my head...

BJ's post was

Previously, to update a post on facebook it would have to be deleted and reposted with any changes, losing any comments or "likes".
But the new capability on facebook, introduced to help users correct spelling and grammatical errors, means posts can be modified, and their content changed without losing it`s likes and comments.
Facebook users who liked or interacted with the original post are not notified of any changes made.

The lack of notifications means that users who may have liked an innocuous post, such as for example "I love my cat", could find their name beside a post which says something entirely different, even offensive or contains political, pornographic, sexually explicit or illegal content.

In layman’s terms this means, If you click I like a post or comment on a post, the original post can be changed by the author later, so what you clicked like to previously can be changed, meaning later on your name maybe associated with the liking of anything.

In our case this is especially dangerous due to Thailand’s strict defamation, anti establishment and prohibited publications laws.

Whatever you do on facebook, you do so at your own risk and discretion.

I have had a look, but cant find much clarification on what this means...

For almost a year now, I have been able to edit comments I post which are replies to other comments posted..

Since BJ's post, I notice I can now edit actual OP Threads I start on pages and groups...

But I still cant seem to edit status posts on my own wall...

Anyone else find the same?

I realize FB opens new feature by group, for testing, so it might not all be open for me... But, im curious if what I find is the average for most?
