Desteni abuse Facebook's Rights & Responsibilities

In order to become an active member of the Desteni group, any potential recruit is required to provide a link to their Facebook profile.

At this page: http://www.facebook.com/terms.php, The Facebook Statement of Rights and Responsibilities reads under 3. Safety:

You will not send or otherwise post unauthorized commercial communications (such as spam) on Facebook. 

You will not engage in unlawful multi-level marketing, such as a pyramid scheme, on Facebook. 

4. Registration and Account Security, states:

You will not use your personal profile for your own commercial gain.

Therefore, Desteni pages on Facebook are technically illegal, including the personal profile pages of ALL Desteni recruiters. They are all on Facebook specifically to spam the site with Desteni material in order to recruit for their Desteni I Process MLM pyramid scheme and their own commercial gain, and for no other reason.

Here is a link where you can report these violations. You do not need to be a member of facebook to do so. https://www.facebook.com/help/contact.php?show_form=report_tos_violation

Desteni's copyright violation of Apple logo

As was pointed out a few months ago, the design of the original Desteni I Process logo (also used generally as a Desteni logo) was a copyright violation.

It was a copy of the Apple AppStore logo.

Apple Inc were eventually informed of this. It appears Apple took action and Desteni responded by changing their logo on the desteniiprocess.com and desteni.co.za websites. Desteni members will also have to change the logos on their avatars on Facebook and elsewhere.

D I Process: new logo
This is another indication that since the termination of their main YouTube channels, and as Desteni continue to publicise their 'equal money system' cult scam, they will continue to encounter more opposition and more setbacks.
