You know how you post pictures on Facebook? Yeah, people look at that stuff. If your privacy settings aren’t expertly set, people are probably Facebook stalking your entire life through the pictures you post online. Even worse, people could be using Badabing!, an iPhone app that filters Facebook friends’ pictures to reveal the pictures where they’re in a bikini at a beach or a pool. It’s freaking creepy.
Badabing! is completey upfront about its skeeviness. In its app description:
Have you ever browsed endlessly through a friend’s albums looking for beach or pool pics? Badabing! helps you find them in a minute. Then browse, bookmark or share!
Yeah, gross. Basically, the app asks you to plug in your Facebook credentials and select friends you want the app to search through. Badabing! isn’t specific on how it culls together the bikini pictures but it’s probably using some sort of pervy image recognition software.
Is this wrong? Well, if the “beach and pool” pictures are available on Facebook for anyone to see, then technically no. But it totally destroys most decent people’s tacit handshake agreement of not being a dickhead Facebook perv. So yeah, it’s wrong. Stop creeping. Ugh, Facebook brings out the worst in people.

I think this does add some definition to the term “memory wank bank”
“plug in your Facebook credentials and select friends you want the app to search through”
What has society come to. Its far to easy to be a creepy per these days.
It has always been easy to be creepy perv, just look at Jimmy Saville, he did it very successfully during the 70′s and 80′s on national TV
He did it on TV?
The children sat on his knees!
Indeed he did, using the very underhanded approach of actually dressing just like a pedo!
Yep, he did like to cuddle and ‘rub’ the kids on his shows, in hindsight it looks VERY creepy perv then it was just innocent kids TV.
In 20 years time we’ll look back at Gordon the Gopher with very different eyes.
and i shall leave this here, and yes its genuine

Ha …Always read the text/tweet before you read it out on air!
“But it totally destroys most decent people’s tacit handshake agreement of not being a dickhead Facebook perv.”
No such agreement exists and shall not exist on the internet. Good day, sir.
