She had a man blocked but because her brother had a picture of this guy on his page they put him on her page under highlights. Everytime she logged on there this creep was and she could not get him off. They thought they were doing her a service but it was not what she wanted. They make you think you can control your homepage but not so. Facebook controls what you see and that is not what we signed up for. They shot themselves in the foot.

I've actually only added people I consider friends but those same friends have people on their friends list that aren't really friends, more like acquaintances, so their list is quite large. That means I'm presented with a long news feed every time I log on of who commented on what and who joined what. For example, I have a friend who has 629 "friends" on his list; let's say he happens to comment on a single picture from each of his friends, that's 629 news feed updates I'm forced to scroll through. Facebook should at least give me the option to turn these off.
