Facebook Considers Changing Privacy Settings

Social networking giant Facebook now considers changing their privacy settings after a huge number of complaints from its users.

According to BBC, Facebook told them that a number of users cried that their current privacy made things too complex.

“We’re working on responding to these concerns. Watch this space,” a Facebook statement said.

This is in response to the changes they made towards the end of 2009 that gained criticism from both government organizations and users as it states that social networkers didn’t need to be accepted as a “friend” to see personal information such as photos, videos and even wall posts. The only way to ensure content on your profile was not shared with other members was to opt-out.

Facebook spokesman Andrew Noyes said that they had a productive discussion where comments were made and questions were asked and answered during their crisis meeting last week.

  1. I think it’s best to keep an eye on your privacy settings on a regular basis. I certainly never got an email telling me things had changed and that we now have to opt out and it’s just too risky to assume Facebook have got our interests at heart.
