Stupid Facebook is Stupid Stupid Stupid
If you came in late, earlier today, Facebook suddenly logged me off, told me my account was disabled because of "security reasons" and that to get it back I had to upload an official government picture ID.
It was really Facebook, this is a thing they've been doing: http://www.itproportal.com/2013/01/28/facebook-demands-photo-id-as-part-of-new-verification-process/
And my problem is, Wells is my writing pseud, and have no official ID in that name.
I called my husband to check and see if my account had been hacked and was posting porn or something, and his account was also disabled, for "security reasons." People checked for us, and both accounts no longer existed, you couldn't even tag us.
So he uploaded his ID. Then just now he realized that his account was now back. He checked, and mine was back too, even though I had never uploaded any ID.
So what does that even mean? I'm just an annex to my husband? Or it's okay if I'm a fake person as long as he's real?
So it was all a stupid non-event for no reason and yeah, I have no idea. I do need it because of all the people I keep in touch with there who aren't online anywhere else, and for the people who read it to get news about my book, and I'm in a couple of groups that are organized through FB, including one for a shared world anthology it would be a real pain not to have access to.
