Recent complaints about the Facebook feature that suggests people should reconnect with friends they have not been in touch with, has caused an uproar in the Facebook community. The issue has been that this feature has been suggesting to users that they reconnect with friends or family members that are dead (and their facebooks are still existent), which is causing discomfort among facebook users. A less prevalent issue (or more depending on your personal preference) there have been instances of this Facebook feature suggesting that users reconnect with ex-wives or husbands. This has been referred to as glitch that reveals "insensitivity of the algorithm," and Facebook will be investigating this glitch.
This issue is gotten completely out of control and needs to be put to a stop. I do not understand how this possibly can be an issue, have people seriously reached the point where they can do absolutely nothing for themselves? First of all the issue of this feature suggesting that people reconnect with ex-wives and husbands should not exist. I'm going to help these people out right now: 1. log onto you profile 2. go into your settings 3. go into your privacy settings 4. look for the little box that says block 5. type in the individuals name 6. click block, and there you go problem solved. If you can't let go of this person enough to do that then you have bigger problems than the ones facbook is presenting you with and should be dealing with them rather than blaming the Facebook admin's. I suggest a similar solution to the dead person problem where you can either delete the person's facebook and if you can't do that simply follow the steps I have so kindly provided. If none of these solves your problem there is a good chance you are beyond help and need to solve your own problems rather than consistently blaming things like Facebook.

I am not exactly sure how this feature works, but it does appear to be a little weird. Why would a Facebook user want to "reconnect" with someone who is no longer living? There could be many reasons for this new feature. Facebook users may want to "reconnect" in order to look at lost pictures or, in other words, gather lost information. However, if they do not want to "reconnect," they could follow the steps you listed. This feature is just one of the many unique features Facebook offers.
