Is Facebook Oppressing the Irish?

February 19th, 2009

I write Facebook applications. It’s part of my job. When I show them off to customers, I’m a little uncomfortable adding them as a friend. They don’t need to see the crazy shenanigans of my friends and me. I signed up for my “private” version of Facebook this morning and learned that Facebook officially restricts the Irish.

Facebook hates the Irish

I mean, who else has more than one capital letter in their name?
