It allows you to group/categorize your friends, and set privacy for each group for most actions. If you wanted to hide everything from your mom, you could. If you need to share an update with your nephews, but not your school friends that's easy.
Perhaps having separate Walls for different groups is the next step.
- zb 15y agoThat's true for a certain category of content - wall posts, photo albums, notes - although they don't make it especially easy. For comments, you not only can't control the privacy setting (it's controlled by whoever posted the original content), you can't really even tell what it is. For other things - likes, your friend list - you can't control it at all.
- abbasmehdi 15y agoIt’s too difficult, and too much work, and too much to remember, and even then fails. What if I wanted to share some posts with some friends, some with other, some with all. Have some activity visible to some, some to others, and some to all? What if I wanted to share some friends with some, some with others, some to all. FB does a terrible job at mimicking real-life social interactions. How comfortable would you feel if everyone whose number you added to your phonebook could see all your other contacts in the phone? Well FB does that. They let new friends see all friends without any relevancy guard or protections.
