User profiles are linguistic constructions, which occur in extra linguistic structures, from the code in the websites we use to computers as linguistic devices, and have the database as a design model. This involves designing fixed structures and categories from the system ,participation and personal data contribution for the user. But what can the database say about the person? According to Mark Poster, because of its structure it manipulated symbols to form a picture of the individual. This illustrates how an identity is formed within a user profile: through language.2
Important part in the concept of user profiles play the protocolls and regulations that govern the process of their creation. In order to register in Facebook for example , to become a user of it, one has to agree with 2 policies, in my Space with 3 policies etc. +++

Assigns also this identity with specific regulations , duties and rights predetermined, therefore mediates power relations and control.
