That facebook's concern for its users' privacy is secondary to more "practical" matters has been clear for some time now--though perhaps most evident with Zuckerberg's memorable, "privacy can no longer be an expectation." And this recognition is not limited to HN-types and "internet gurus." General users, college students especially, also realize this and so a pattern has developed in which younger users (speaking from the perspective of a college student) exercise a degree of caution (probably less than sufficient) while in college and then upon entry into the workforce, remove the wall, photos from their profile and thus their facebook profiles becomes little more than a prettier linkedin. If this pattern reflects more than just my experiences, Facebook seems poised to be your online passport at the expense of its capabilities as a social communication hub.
