According to the Daily Mail on December 1, a new survey by the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers has found that one in five divorces in US involve the social networking site Facebook。
Flirty messages and photographs found on Facebook are increasingly being cited as proof of unreasonable behavior or irreconcilable differences.
Many cases revolve around social media users who get back in touch with old flames they hadn'
t heard from in many years。
Facebook was by far the biggest offender,
with 66
percent of lawyers citing it as the primary source of evidence in a divorce case.
MySpace followed with 15
percent,
Twitter at 5
percent and other choices lumped together at 14
percent。
The survey reflects the findings of a UK law firm last year showing that 20
percent of its divorce petitions blamed Facebook flings。
