Facebook Changes Privacy Policies, Users show outrage once again

Facebook has announced a proposed change to its privacy policy that is bound to outrage many users of the popular social networking site. They want to provide send your name, photo, friends list, and any information you’ve made public to third party companies. Facebook’s deputy general says it may be necessary to do so in order to “make way for some exciting new products”.

While they will allow users to opt out the policy will be enabled by default. They say providing this information will give users a “personalized” experience when visiting those third party sites. Users mostly remain unaware of these settings and when they come to know, its already too late.  

They want user feedback so be sure to give it here.
