ps: and please no such useless comment as usual such as “if you want privacy, don’t use the Internet” :
Hi Logos,
Facebook has been trespassing the rules they have set out by themselves: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704513104575256701215465596.html
Identifiable strings were sent inside data with user and profile name, the data breach has been reported by Ben Edelman, a privacy fighter, here his analysis: http://www.benedelman.org/news/05xx10-1.html
People should come to realize that their virtual and digital existence has become fully transparent to be sold out to the highest bidder,

If you use Facebook, then make sure your privacy is protected.
The Privacy Scanner offered by ReclaimPrivacy.org makes it easy.
yeah, Facebook is becoming a real shame…its reputation is being so much advertised that it can’t be ignored. I guess most users just don’t care…they keep sharing personal data in the open…they keep joining the “family” :
same story again and again, not mentioning that Zuckerberg (26) might not be in control of Facebook anyway :

I guess you didn’t look at my post ???
I knew about “regain privacy” before reading your post. First I tried it >>> it detected issues but couldn’t fix, I had to change the corresponding settings manually. And second, that doesn’t change anything to the fact that facebook privacy policy and settings should be 100% revised. The scanning and eventual fixing of the settings is just a temporary fix…
