Or is the next logical step ? The same ethics &amp; questions arise about notifying followers about change of ownership etc.<br><br>And is it any use to the purchaser ? I guess yes it can be as that person is buying a ready made following which they can keep or increase if they maintain interesting content.<br>In this context, content sites are very different from primarily friend sites like Facebook.Maggy YoungMon, 14 Apr 2008 18:50:43 -0000http://www.allfacebook.com/2008/04/can-you-sell-your-facebook-profile/#comment-1639955I think on top of the legal implications involved in selling your profile, there are significant ethical issues arising from such activities. If a profile is sold, is the purchaser (or seller) required to notify all friends/followers of the change in ownership? With Facebook, the issue is obviously much more serious, as more personal information is typically contained in users' profiles. On Twitter, I can block people who start following me to build up lists of users; but what if I don't know the true identity of the person following me? That is some very thin ice. <br><br>And most importantly, if someone is willing to spend that much money on a Twitter profile, maybe they can also lend me some money to pay back my student loans? I hate wasteful spending. <br><br>PS: The bid is up to $1525 now! Ridiculous.VitakMon, 14 Apr 2008 12:57:26 -0000
