I came set to fight, but... He's right. People really do just give up their privacy that easily. Take it away a bit at a time and eventually they get used to it. Facebook has proven it.
There will always be those who won't stand for it... But there's not enough of them.
My real problem with Facebook and privacy isn't that it allows you to give it up, but that it takes it from you and then let's you opt out of it.
Giving things up should always be opt-in.

- damoncali 15y agoI would argue they've received neither.
- baddox 15y agoWith Facebook, you always maintain the right to privacy. You can only allow a few friends to see your photos, you can restrict your public profile, and you can even refuse to use Facebook. I've never understood why Facebook issues are labeled "privacy issues." The ability to willfully share something has nothing to do with privacy. There is only a privacy issue if you are unable to keep something private that you would rather be kept private.
- damoncali 15y agoYes- I am comfortable giving my privacy up. I will never be comfortable having it taken away. Facebook either does not understand this or does not care. A side thought> what would facebook be like today if they actually respected privacy legitimately?
