In a prior post we told you about the new social network site Seppukoo, which encourages Facebook users to commit virtual suicide to liberate themselves from their digital bodies. In order to do this users of course have to close down their Facebook account – which Facebook isn’t happy about. According to Les Liens Invisible – the artist group behind Seppukoo, Facebook.com is now trying to put a stop to Seppukoo’s attempt to close down user’s profiles. Not only has Facebook blocked all attempts to commit Seppukoo from the site and deleted all information on Sepukoo on Facebook (including the Sepukoo Fan Page) – they now also threaten legal action against the artist group in order to stop the suicide pendemic.

Apparently the Facebook lawyers appeal to the user right to privacy to annihilate Seppukoo’s unsubscribe service.
Seppukoo’s reply is that their staff:
”rejects every false pretence about phishing or malitious use of personal datas and pubblically invites Facebook’s developers to meet us and see in first person what kind of informations we save and how we care of them.”
According to the site Les Liens Invisibles is now considerig all possibilities to come back as soon as possible.
