I have just been informed by a knowledgeable friend that this may be just a load of hot air, but here it is anyway now that I have done it for what it's worth.

Seans nach bhfuil sa méid seo a leanas ach cur i gcéill, dar le cara liom atá ar an eolas, ach seo ar aon chaoi é agus mé théis é a dhéanamh, bíodh sé fíor nó bréagach!



ENGLISH ORIGINAL VERSION:

Here's an interesting bit of information regarding Facebook that I saw on a 'friend' page. Is this true? I know little about the technicalities, but it does seem like Facebook should make this more obvious for us...

"Hello to all of you who are on my list of contacts of Facebook. I haven't wanted to do this, but after finding all of my photos located on another site, I would like to ask a favor of you…. You may not know that Facebook has changed its privacy configuration once again. Thanks to the new “Graphic app”, any person on FB anywhere in the world can see our photos, our “likes” and our “comments”. During the next two weeks, I am going to keep this message posted and I ask you to do the following and comment “DONE”. Those of my friends who do not maintain my information in private will be eliminated from my list of friends, because I want the information I share with you, my friends, to remain among my friends and not be available to the whole world. I want to be able to publish photos of my friends and family without strangers being able to see them, which is what happens now when you choose “like” or “comment”. Unfortunately we cannot change this configuration because FB has made it like this.
1. So, please, place your cursor over my photo that appears in the small box (without clicking) and a window will open.
2. Now move the cursor to the word “Friends”, again without clicking and then on “Settings”.
3. Un-check “Life Events” and "photos" and “Comments and Like”. This way my activity with my family and friends will no longer be made public."


LEAGAN GAEILGE:

Seo píosa eolais ar leathanach charad liom ar chuir mé suim ann maidir le Facebook. An bhfuil sé fíor? Níl a fhios agam mórán faoi na teicniúlachtaí féin, ach breathnaíonn sé gur cheart do Facebook an rud seo a léiriú níos fearr dúinn...

“Beannachtaí daoibh go léir atá ar mo liosta teagmhálaithe ar Facebook.
Ní raibh sé i gceist agam seo a dhéanamh, ach théis dom mo chuid grianghraf go léir a fheiceáil ar shuíomh eile, ba mhaith liom gar a iarraidh oraibh...
Seans nach bhfuil sé ar eolas agaibh go bhfuil Facebook tar éis a shocrú príobháide a athrú uair amháin eile.
A bhuíochas don ‘Aip Ghrafach’ nua seo, tá duine ar bith atá ar Facebook áit ar bith ar domhan in ann ár gcuid grianghraf a fheiceáil, in ann teacht ar ár gcuid ‘is maith liom’ agus teacht ár gcuid ‘tráchtanna’.
Le linn na coicíse seo ag teacht, coinneoidh mé an teachtaireacht seo postáilte suas agus iarraim oraibh an méid seo a leanas a dhéanamh agus cuir trácht ‘DÉANTA’ suas.
Cuirfidh mé ar ceal ar mo liosta cairde na cairde úd nach bhfuil sásta mo chuid eolais a choinneáil príobháideach - mar tá mé ag iarraidh an t-eolas a roinnim libhse mo chairde fanacht i measc mo chairde agus gan bheith ar fáil don saol ar fad.
Táim ag iarraidh grianghraif de mo chairde agus de mo mhuintir a fhoilsiú gan stráinséirí a bheith in ann iad a fheiceáil - mar a tharlaíonn faoi láthair nuair a roghnaíonn tú ‘is maith liom’ nó ‘trácht’.
Mo thrua nach bhfuil muid in ann an socrú seo a athrú mar is mar sin atá Facebook tar éis é a dhéanamh.
1. Mar sin, le do thoil, cuir an cúrsóir ar mo ghrianghraf atá sa mbosca beag (gan cliceáil) agus osclófar fuinneog.
2. Anois, bog an cúrsóir chuig an bhfocal ‘Friends’ (Cairde) gan cliceáil agus ansin chuig ‘Settings’ (Socruithe).
3. Dí-thiceáil ‘Life Events’ (Imeachtaí saoil), agus ‘photos’ (grianghraif) agus ‘Comments and Like’ (is maith liom agus trácht). Ar an gcaoi seo ní fhágfar mo chuid gníomhaíochtaí le mo mhuintir agus le mo chairde faoi bhráid an phobail níos mó.

Sea sin "hoax" (cur i gcéill??).

Ach is deas an leagan Gaeilge a bheith againn ar aon nós. :good:

It is recommended that you always wait for three to agree on a translation.
I speak Connemara Irish, and my input will often reflect that.
I will do an mp3 file on request for short translations.

For some reason or other, there are quite a few of these hoaxes on FB. Whenever I see something that wants you to make all kinds of changes and notify everyone on earth, I think no way. A good source of checking them out is www.snopes.com

Scéal difriúil ach ceangailte.
