While I still despise Bieber's singing, this is just low. That dumbfuck kids and his lawyer not only managed to insult Bieber - they also ended up offending the LGBT community as a whole.

Kudos to Justin for keeping his cool.

The Wall Street Journal reports that top Facebook applications, including FarmVille, Zynga Texas Hold 'Em Poker and FrontierVille, have been sharing your Facebook ID number to advertising and Internet tracking companies without your knowledge.

This is a violation of Facebook policy, which prohibits app makers from sharing your personal information to outside companies without "explicit user consent."

Fuck you Farmville. I hope you stay down, and that every player's crops die a slow, painful death.
