I changed as soon as I could. Ads don't bother me as I have Adblock Plus installed, and I hate missing out on new features.

Re: Ask HN: Is anyone else being forced to move to Facebook timeline?
#22It happened to me too. And yes, I guess it can move you to anything without your explicit consent.
I figured there was a change in the terms of service that required explicit consent.... damn, I guess not.
It is entertaining to me that you would presume Facebook doesn't "have a right" to change the way your profile looks.
This reminds me of when SearchKing sued google because they position on SERP's dropped. At some point, people forget that there are multinational corporations behind these massive service. They have no obligation to delight you, or remain consistent in appearance/functionality.
