Hmmm... In my considerable experience, as far as I can determine, Facebook does not spam.

Untrue.

ALL the social networks spam, usually by harvesting users address books,
particularly those stored on mobile devices.

Linkedin is the worst...

I remain skeptical. I see all my incoming e-mail (including huge amounts that are set aside by the spam filter) and none of it is from Facebook or LinkedIn. From LinkedIn I get notifications when someone gives me an invitation or a recommendation, but I don't consider that spam -- it is notifications that I signed up for.

As I said, in my experience Facebook does not spam. Are you yourself receiving spam from Facebook? What does it say?
