Son capaces de alterar tus nervios
Usuarios de Facebook odiosos.

Todos, absolutamente todos hemos pensado en algún momento de nuestra vagancia en Facebook 'qué pesado es este wey', porque neta que a veces la gente publica cada cosa en redes que...

Bueno, aún así los sigues conservando como amigos porque son de tu familia o porque sí estaría manchado darles el cortón, así que para que confirmes que todos lo hemos sufrido alguna vez, te traemos los tipos de usuarios más odiosos que nosotros también hemos encontrado en Facebook.

El presumido

Se la pasa restregándote en la cara que él está en un concierto mientras tú estás de forever alone en tu casa, en viernes por la noche. No deja de alardear sobre dónde está, como en el aeropuerto a punto de tomar un viaje a las Bahamas, o cenando carísimo en el Pujol. Ok, comprendemos que le hace falta un poco de atención.

El forever alone

Porfa, basta con que él mismo sepa que no consigue salir ni en rifa, está manchado que se la pase publicando que no puede conseguir novia y tú no sólo sientas lástima, sino que te dé pena ajena. Seguro publica chistes como "A mi me gustan las relaciones sexuales como mis tortillas... hechas a mano". ¡Pum!

El disidente

Nada está bien, todo le parece mal, todo es un 'compló' del gobierno para perjudicarlo, así que se resiste al consumismo y se la pasa criticando a sus compitas porque van a bares caros y se compran ropa de marca... lo que pasa es que a él no le alcanza ni para los chicles y por eso les tiene envidia y los critica.

El cadenero

No cadenero de esos que te escanean a la entrada de un antro, más bien el que se la pasa mandándote miles de cadenas por mensajes de Facebook en las que te caerá una maldición si no la compartes un millón de veces más, o el que se la pasa dándole 'likes' a fotos con imágenes religiosas, atascando tu TL.

El sin quehacer

Sí, ese que se la pasa publicando cosas cada tres minutos como si el primer video en la historia de la Banda Machos fuera de tu interés. Si no es chat, chavos, se vale que se busque un hobbie como leer o tomar clases de inglés.

El periodista

No importa que esa 'noticia bomba' ya la hayas visto en la tele, oído en el radio o leído en Twitter, él la publica con un slogan que intenta convencerte de que él se enteró primero que nadie y que te hace el favor de compartirte esa información.

El atascado

De esos a los que sigues en Face, en Twitter, en Instagram y que publica la misma cosa en las tres plataformas, como para que no te lo pierdas por ningún motivo, es que podrías quedarte con el pendiente.

La dolida

No hay nada más triste -esperen sí, el forever alone- que ver a alguien quejándose de su peor es nada que ni tiene Facebook. Basta con que se consiga una mejor amiga para que le cuente que el fulano de tal la dejó plantada, que lleva días sin llamarle, que lo vio con otra y deje de atormentarnos con su triste telenovela que avergüenza.

El cronista deportivo

Para eso está Twitter -perdón, ni Twitter-, eso de prácticamente narrar los partidos de futbol por Facebook causa un poco más de escozor, sobre todo cuando no te interesan los deportes o porque simplemente leer 'goooooooooooooool' no es información relevante.

El nuevo papá

Tú sigues chavo, en las mieles de la juventud y comienzas a ver cómo tus compitas de la universidad, ya con hijos, publican fotos en familia, se la pasan presumiendo que les salió el primer diente y las mujeres, incluso intercambiando tips de educación y cuidados.

¿Nos faltaron? O eres uno de ellos...Haz patria y dale follow a este pájaro.

A major new hacking attack underscores that governments and companies are losing the war against cyber thieves, but it's unclear if the disclosure will prompt quicker global action against online break-ins.
A U.S. report that intruders breached the computer networks of 72 organizations around the world over a five-year period in the biggest hacking campaign found to date will be seized on by Western states to call for tougher digital defences.
"This is the biggest transfer of wealth in terms of intellectual property in human history," said Dmitri Alperovitch, vice president of Threat Research at U.S. security company McAfee, which produced the report.
McAfee said it believed there was one "state actor" behind the attacks but declined to name it, though one security expert who has been briefed on the hacking said the evidence points to China. There was no comment from China on the report.
Evidence of official Western concern about the raids surfaced on Wednesday when Britain's electronic spy agency issued a rare public comment, saying the report illustrated the importance of better cyber security for trade and social development.
There was a need for the widest possible international "shared understanding" of acceptable online behavior, the Government Communications Headquarters told Reuters.
At the White House, spokesman Jay Carney said President Barack Obama was working to tighten the defences of both the government and private sector.
Echoing that view, the British-based International Cyber Security Protection Alliance, which helps law enforcement agencies tackle online intruders, said the report showed cyber warfare had escalated to a degree that was irrefutable.
"Businesses that have mainstream exposure to the Internet and that are dependent upon technology for their survival must now surely take the threat seriously," alliance chief executive John Lyons told Reuters.
He said companies should now be "much less arrogant in their approach to ensure that their intellectual property and customer data is securely protected."
Whether they will be any more vigilant is another question.
STIGMA WANING, BUT SLOWLY
Despite growing alarm in Western governments, a host of obstacles stands in the way of a safer online world, not least the reluctance of stigma-conscious companies to report attacks.
That reluctance is eroding, following publicized strikes on Western and multilateral institutions in 2011, but not quickly enough for the liking of many security experts.
Mohan Koo, chief executive at security firm Dtex, said the report would encourage more companies to speak out and pool experiences to combat what he calls the hacking epidemic.
"However, I suspect most will want to remain anonymous due to the heightened fear of reputational implications," he said.
"More detail around what was stolen and how would certainly help illustrate the scenarios and would provide more chance of others coming and saying, 'Hey, that happened to me too!'."
Graham Cluley, senior technology consultant at Sophos, told Reuters the McAfee report was another important reminder for all firms and governments to take computer security seriously.
But he agreed that more information would help focus minds.
"At the moment, it's unclear whether it was Rose on Reception or Dave the CEO who had his computer attacked."
Then there is cynicism among businesses about publicized cyber disasters. These are sometimes seen as marketing by an industry competing hard for business from clients strapped for cash.
IDEOLOGICAL DIVIDE DEEPENS
"There is still a reluctance amongst organizations to believe this is happening -- especially of course when it's a security company making the statements -- but that is slowly diminishing and CEOs are becoming more aware," said Tony Dyhouse, of Britain's ICT Knowledge Transfer Network, a multi-industry forum on innovation.
Another problem is that many organizations have difficulty using standard risk-management techniques to gauge the threat against the cost of impact to a business.
"It's almost impossible to sensibly assess the financial impact as that often lies in leading-edge intellectual property which may form part of a bigger (business) picture, and may not be realized for years more," said Dyhouse.
Then there is the fact that all sophisticated governments try to snoop electronically on each other. That delicate reality means that any international effort to harmonies laws on cybercrime to enable violators to be pursued and punished across borders has to first tackle a deep deficit of trust.
What also complicates cyber diplomacy is an ideological divide between Western nations and more authoritarian societies. Autocracies tend to favor censorship. Western nations argue access to information has vital economic and social benefits.
"A digital curtain is descending across the globe," said Rafal Rohozinski, a senior scholar at the Canada Center for Global Security Studies.
Just over half of the world's Internet-connected population lives under one form of online restriction or another, and that number is rising fast, he told the U.S. Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe at a July 15 hearing in Washington.
"Since 2003, when we first documented the emergence of the "great firewall" of China, more than 45 states worldwide have adopted similar means for turning the Internet from a global commons into a gated community."
