Facebook Change Privacy Control Settings

 

 

 

Facebook will roll out changes today that will make it easier for users to understand and control their privacy settings.

Starting today, Facebook will:

 
Provide an easy-to-use "master" control that enables users to set who can see the content they share through Facebook.  This enables users to choose, with just one click, the overall privacy level they're comfortable with for the content they share on Facebook. Of course, users can still use all of the granular controls we've always offered, if they wish.

Significantly reduce the amount of information that must be visible to everyone on Facebook. Facebook will no longer require that users' friends and connections are visible to everyone. Only Name, Profile Picture, Networks and Gender must be publicly available. Users can opt to make all other connections private.

Make it simple to control whether other applications and websites access any user information. While a majority of our users love Facebook apps and Facebook-enhanced websites, some may prefer not to share their information outside of Facebook. Users can now opt out with just one click.
