I'll never forget when Ernest Funk, a member of the Canadian branch committee who looks like he's 100 years old, basically yelled into his mike at a district convention that Facebook is evil and how "we are warning you about it". He literally yelled out loud a warning about using Facebook to 2000+ attendees. This was in 2009 I think.
Elders, special pioneers, and bethelites now use it anyway. I've found an old CO on it as well.
a pic from the bible teach book was posted on reddit's popular /r/wtf subreddit where people post things that make you say "what the fuck" out loud.
this was the photo and you can read the thread's comments here.

to all congregationsre: orchestral accompaniment for singing at congregation meetings.
dear brothers:.
many will find that the newly composed orchestral recordings are more inspiring andconducive to our worship than is piano music alone.
Canada Bethel had a brother/sister play the piano in the auditorium for all the songs for their Monday evening Watchtower study until late 2010/2011 when after a zone visit they were told to stop using it. lots were sad when they were told this.
for whatever reason, Brooklyn only wants the recordings played at all meetings, period.
jehovah's organization has lovingly provided all elders with guidance to help them 'shepherd the flock'.
to help you [elders only] get more familiar with your 'shepherd' book we are asking you to 'test your knowledge' with this first 'mini quiz' of a series entitled: where in the book?.
question 1: where in the book would you find this fine and timely advice for congregation elders?.

jw.org has removed their misquote of rama singh from digital versions of awake!
magazine.
I can't see the images so I made this myself
it seems that select videos on jw.org now offer a comment section for any registered user, (previously, logins were only used by elders, servants and those who wanted to donate by credit card).
however, your login info now has to contain your real full name and be approved by your congregations service committee..
i was sitting next to a sister this evening who during the whole ride she had one of those plastic folders that holds the mags and pamphlets, she had both spanish and english and was holding the folder out in front of her until she got off the train.
i asked her if she was counting her time, she said yes (of course she asked how do i know about that).
she said it's not easy talking to the people in the station (seemed like she meant standing with the trolley or just the mags) because sometimes people say things that aren't nice, so she counts her time on her daily commute.

married jehovah's witness, 36, who had sex with boy, 15, after inviting him to sleepovers with her children avoids jail sentence .
she was spared jail by a judge at merthyr tydfil crown court today.
"Richards was sentenced to a two-year suspended jail term and a sexual offences prevention order. She will also have to sign on to the sex offenders’ register for ten years."
What a joke. If the roles were reversed, she would be imprisoned for minimum 5 years.
