Just to clarify for the media: Facebook does not cause syphilis, nor do video games cause violence. Stupid people use these things and then do stupid things, no relation really.

Did they mean that our computers are at risk of syphillis, due to facebook's malicious filled apps and links? ..yeah lets go ahead and jump back to the fact that first person shooters are linked to gun violence.

I just posted it to my Facebook account as well. Along with, quoting the no glove typing comment as the title. Lets see what my idiotic school friends have to say about this one.

Umm... this article says correlation and the researchers hypothesized that it the cause of the correlation was the ease which strangers could hook up and have casual sex. (Sounds much more plausable than if they said people who are promiscuous are the ones that sign up for Facebook - but it is just a hypothesis, not a proven theory.)

Anyway, it is a shame this is about Syphilis and not AIDS - 'cause now we are missing out on those jokes about how Facebook helps spread viruses. :p
