An easier solution is to simply treat Facebook as 100% public. Don't post anything you don't want representing you. Then who cares if Facebook sells all of it's data to the highest bidder?
- callahad 17y agoI haven't read the terms around the Instant Personalization, but it could be used to track users' behavioral data across sites. That's what I'm worried about, not the static contents of my profiel.
- natrius 17y agoIf you don't want your behavior to be tracked across sites, you should probably disable cookies.
- _delirium 17y agoJust disabling third-party cookies would be enough for most things, and would break fewer sites. For an even more fine-grained approach, a lot of the AdBlock blocklists have webbug/tracking domains in addition to ad servers.
- retube 17y agoThis is missing a big issue: it's not jsut about what YOU post, but what others post about you.
- cdr 17y agoThat's not how I use facebook nor how I want to use facebook. Easier maybe, desirable no.
- scott_s 17y agoThen what you want is not realistic. The internet is inherently public. Private spaces on it are a fiction.
- ElbertF 17y agoFor me it's more about my online behavior than my data. I don't want YouTube to tell my Facebook friends what I've been watching. I don't want Amazon to advertise with my profile picture because I bought a book my girlfriend might be interested in. That's where this is going and why I canceled my account.
