There’s something going down on Facebook. Pay attention. | SquaredPeg
This is written from the point of view of someone who thinks this is terrible. Apparently there exists a group of people who are on the admin for a ton of facebook groups targeting the class of 2013.
About half way down the page poster says
"But for 500+ schools? Owning the admin rights to groups equaling easily 1,000,000+ freshman college students?
That’s huge.
Think of it: Sitting back for 8-10 months, (even a few years), maybe friending everyone and posing as an incoming student. Think of the data collection. The opportunities down the road to push affiliate links. The opportunity to appear to be an ‘Admin’ of Your School Class of 2013. The chance to message alumni down the road. The list of possibilities goes on and on and on."
