What's that supposed to mean? Other than the fact that I should make my profile private.

Ok. I think I'm confused. I can't get into any of the Group Forum Threads on MySpace, so some of these questions I can't get answered. Can anyone tell me who these people are: (yes, I know I'll feel stupid when you tell me)

Morocco: Prison for Facebook Prince
By NEIL MacFARQUHAR


Fouad Mourtada, a 26-year-old engineer, was sentenced by a Casablanca court to three years in prison for creating a fake profile of the king’s brother on Facebook, the Internet social networking site, the official news agency MAP reported. He was accused of “villainous practices” and of stealing the identity of the crown prince, Moulay Rachid. The case has ignited the Moroccan blogosphere, which used it as a prime example of deteriorating freedom of expression in the North African kingdom. Hundreds of prank profiles exist on Facebook, for everyone from President Bush to Osama bin Laden. At least four fake Moulay Rachid Facebook pages have now been set up, apparently from the safety of overseas. The defense said it would appeal the sentence, MAP reported. MAP announced at the time of Mr. Mourtada’s arrest that no Moroccan royals maintained Web sites or blogs.

In retrospect, was this some sort of hint?
