Exodus Follows Facebook's Beacon Roll-Out; Outrage at Privacy Violations

    NEW YORK, Nov. 29 // -- Capazoo (http://www.capazoo.com), the newest and most unique social networking and online entertainment Web site, today issued an open letter to disgruntled Facebook members offering free VIP membership and a privacy guarantee that rivals Facebook's Beacon function.

    Tens of thousands of Facebook consumers expressed outrage when their online holiday shopping became part of their Facebook news feed. Purchases were exposed, surprises were spoiled and an element of online privacy was violated in front of hundreds of thousands of Facebook members.

    "Joining a social network doesn't automatically open your life like a book," said Grant Carter, president of Capazoo. "Members should determine what's private and what's public, not a social network's owners."

    Facebook's Beacon reveals the purchases of Facebook members even when they are not visiting the site. The function was designed to attract additional advertisers but instead outraged their membership.

    Capazoo issued an open letter to disgruntled Facebook members earlier today via their website and offered free VIP memberships by using the promo code "facebook" on their registration page.

    Capazoo members earn real cash through Member-to-Member Tipping, advertising revenue sharing, corporate profit sharing and revenue earned through the referral of friends.
