Privacy on Facebook- it's all different now?


Private

Originally uploaded by ex.libris

Has society’s attitude to privacy changed in the few years since Facebook was initiated?

Mark Zuckerberg appears to claim that we are all more comfortable with sharing what once might have been seen as private, and that is why Facebook’s privacy changes are OK.  There is a lot of discussion on this claim, since the relaxation  of privacy makes our data much more useable by others (marketers and their audience) and hence  more valuable to Facebook.  Read about what he said and danah boyd’s very interesting response.

What do you think?  Are you happy to share your name, profile picture, gender, current city, networks, Friends List, and all the pages you subscribe to on Facebook?  It’s that last one that troubles me a little.
