Sorry-not-sorry spammers, but, once again, if Facebook were "about" to delete my page for "copyright infringement," they would have done so years ago. Instead, it's your own pages that are being deleted, while FB continuously advertises my page and bills me for it, as they have for years. Go find someone to try to scam, or, better yet, get off FB altogether and do something constructive with your lives.

To all the spammers who have been leaving me messages for the last several months saying that my page is "infringing a copyright" and that Facebook is about to "deactivate" it, the reality is that if that were the case, my page would have already been deactivated long ago... yet it's still here. Your pages, by contrast, have been deactivated with my every report of your spamming behavior.

One of the best ways to protect yourself against data loss in the event of a hard drive crash is to make use of Windows' File History and OneDrive features. File History saves the most recent versions of your documents, pictures, and music files onto a secondary hard drive, whether internally mounted inside your PC or externally attached via a USB port, while OneDrive stores your data on Microsoft's cloud servers. Twice in the past six years my main hard drive has failed, but thanks to these two programs all that I "lost" was the time that it took to reinstall Windows onto a new hard drive; what could have been a disaster became merely an inconvenience. You may contact me here for more information about these programs or about any other computer-related questions or needs that you may have.
