Privacy issues hit Facebook again

Filed under: News — Charlie Summers @ 2:42 pm

From the Christian Science Monitor: Privacy issues hit Facebook again

From the article: “Privacy concerns swirled around Facebook again after an employee of a firm called Skull Security compiled and released personal data on more than 100 million Facebook users, about a fifth of the site’s membership.”

Facebook is the Internet for people too lazy to set up their own pages (easily accomplished by almost every ISP around) and too confused to set privacy settings. Me, I’ll stick to publishing only what I wish here on my own corner of the Web, and protecting my readers and friends by not allowing data to flow from them without their expressed permission - only those who choose to post comments are exposed, and only what they wish to post.

Oh, yeah, and there’s only one small advertisement on this page, too, instead of boatloads that link to your private information. Facebook is just too creepy for my tastes.
