Facebook in the news again

Recently facebook has been in the news due to the amount of time that employees in the UK are spending on the site. It is in the news again, this time Facebook has angered mothers who choose to post pictures of themselves breastfeeding. In fact they are so angry that they have launched a petitionin the form of a Facebook group called "Hey, Facebook, breastfeeding is not obscene!". The group now has almost 7000 members. (http://www.stuff.co.nz/4193942a28.html) They are arguing that if women are allowed to breastfeed in public they should be allowed to on a website.

I personally find images of breastfeeding offensive but I see what their point is when they say that images of naked women and men for that matter are shown on the internet.

Virtual Reality or ONE Reality now? That is the question.
