It's about time. So many of my friends have had their FB accounts hacked this past week. One post was vile, hateful language....and it was a virus....

Deleted my fb account when the whole Google PR disaster hit. Too many crappy things come out from under the Facebook-rock.

That's all I see on facebook is spam. Someone is always sending me a cow they found on their farm.

Kinda hard to block a whole cow. Maybe you can block one of the udders

Too late for me too, someone hacked my facebook account and sent everyone on it spam. Anything done on facebook can be done some other way, there is no need for it.

First, it was AOL links to their website. Now we are forced to watch AOL videos.

I am so confused. AOL is a failed company. They purchased Huff Post because it was NOT a failed company and they saw the growth with HuffPost.

Now, AOL is imposing their failed business model on HuffPost. Shouldn't it be the other way around? Shouldn't it be that AOL news be replaced with HuffPost?

These monkeys are going to scare away HuffPost users.

On both FB and HP. AOL is NOT helping this site.

Good job AOL/Huffpost. I was skeptical about the partnership. The video has good no-fluff content and good production value similar to Onion News Video.

ps. Love the part when she said "props" at the end.

That's right. The hackers are always at least 1 - 2 steps ahead of the Safety Teams!
