I never use any social networking site for anything but i have account on all those so called "social networking" websites lol, but i think now i have to delete all of them.

I do share the issues on privacy raised here. People perhaps do not realize but even before the social networking explosion they were already leaing their footprints behind them all over the Internet. Our every move can be traced there!

By entering Facebook you are already opening yourself access to yourself on a grand scale but it only gets worse when the application develeopers have been granted a virtual "hunting licence" on the masses involved in these sites.

The "tick the box" or "adjust your privacy settings" excuse is a lousy one and nothing but a severe betrayal of user trust.

I'm worried now !

I've been pretty careful about the applications I've installed and only given them the minimum permissions they need, so I felt pretty safe.

成人论坛 Click's results are worrying. I have a number of friends who install the worst of applications, even the ones clearly designed to be more viral than useful or entertaining. How much access do their applications have to my data ?

I fear I may have to put 80 or more friends onto a limited profile list..

To be honest, you're risking your privacy of data as soon as you put anything anywhere or the internet. If it isn't page privacy that's a problem, it's applications. There will always be a way that people can steal the information you put online.

Nothing on the internet - or anywhere else for that matter - can be relied on to be secure. Users should only put up information that they don't treasure and shouldn't make it easy for criminals by placing their address, phone number, full name and interests in the same place.

I'm not saying that Facebook isn't responsible. It gives people a false sense of security, which is unfair. But it always boils down to the fault of those people who decide, willingly, to broadcast all their personal information to the world in one, little file.

Last day i try to delete my account from facebook and it came out that i cannot delete my account completely, and its really stupid, it just deactivate ur account which will be open the next time u login, that sucks! i think everybody should stop using this facebook until they dont allow u to delete ur account.

I think we should start a struggle with slogan that "Stop using facebook" until they dont do anything about privacy.

aboylearning, you've sadly missed the boat with that bit of news. Facebook's deactivation process was hotly discussed late last year in various newspapers.

I'm not sure campaigning against Facebook is the right course of action but agree that there's something wrong. Though it's widely speculated in the media, not enough people are aware when the sign up for such services they're giving out a lot of personal information and risking it all. Stopping people isn't the right course of action. Instead users should be made more aware and allowed to make their own decisions.

GoodOlGrego, i have not missed it but i again point out this to show how evil these websites are, and it was read on this website as well.

Of course we cannot stop anyone, i have not access to computer of all the people in this world, but we can tell people they are going to be in mess when they signup for these services and everyone should write something in their blogs and should conclude that its not safe to sign up for their services :D, plus there is another point "Do we really need these websites", they are just waste of time and people are getting money from out time spending, hmm, i think that will also be a good point to make over the net, why people are wasting their time to make someone else rich.


Now seriously speaking when i said we should "stop using facebook" was mean that we should tell people in our surrounding that this is not safe, so be aware of them. then of course this will be their own choice to continue to use them or not.
