According to new research, one in five divorces mentions Facebook. This is not to say that Facebook is necessarily to blame for these divorces, only that the social network is mentioned for some reason in the paperwork. However, in 66% of these cases, Facebook was cited as the primary reason for divorce. Also, lawyers say evidence culled from social networks such as Facebook has risen 80% in recent years.
Experts say this data is a little confusing. Since Facebook is the largest and most popular social network, it makes sense that it would dominate in these less tasteful areas, just as it dominates in other areas related to social networking.
A similar study found that over 80% of New York City prostitutes use Facebook regularly as part of their business.
