If you think about it, many sites, like your bank, ask security questions.... If you fill in EVERY SINGLE THING Facebook asks to "fill in your profile", between that and your links to family and friends, how long do you think it is until people can piece together your answers to those security questions?

IMO security questions are the bigest security risk in the world.

First of all, I think the whole thought that Facebook is dying is nowhere near true. Yes there are people that close their accounts but new people also open accounts so there's always that cycle of users. This whole concept around the life of Facebook has been reported on numerous times in the past and it seems to be news outlets' method to grab your attention more than anything. I don't care if "channel 8 news" reported on it. Chances are, very few to none of those reporters/personalities directly use Facebook so they have no idea what they are talking about. Always seems the people that say stuff about Facebook are the ones that don't use it. The original intent of the site is long gone, and obviously it isn't what it once was, but it's nowhere near dead right now.
