Man Named 'Something Long and Complicated' Battles Facebook
Quote:
Something Long and Complicated is a 30-year-old British man who recently triumphed over Facebook, proving his identity was his legal name and not an elaborate hoax.
Complicated, who was born William Wood and legally changed his name in 2007, was blocked from Facebook when the social media site said he needed to verify his identity.
He submitted the requested copies of his driver's license, passport, credit cards and other identify-proving ephemera
Surprisingly, it was only after Complicated sent in a Mirror article about his troubles hat Facebook decided actually to actually respond to his request. They subsequently reinstated his account and told he would no longer be able to edit his name on the site
