But I think the OP's point is that privacy will eventually fade away, so if I'm doing a Google search on "cure for HPV" this will be published publicly to my Facebook profile. I don't really care that "oh, it doesn't publish automatically unless you grant it permission!". I want to be notified when something is posted on my profile.
On another note, I'm seriously considering closing my FB account once and for good and leaving for G+. I have a good crowd of friends willing to do this (and invite their friends), but G+ offers no way to import FB data, which would be a nice feature.
- orijing 15y agoI don't understand. You're afraid that your Google searches will be published to your Facebook stream, so you want to close your FB account and move to G+, because presumably Google is less likely to publish to your G+ profile than to your Facebook profile?
- muyuu 15y agoI'm with you there, which is why I've closed my FB profile long ago, and my G+ profile within the first day (as soon as it forced me to link Picasa). G+ makes as little sense for a private person as Facebook, if not even less.
- dorkitude 15y agoWouldn't it be easier just to continue using Facebook, but never grant any permissions to any apps?
- ltamake 15y agoAnd what if Facebook decides that apps no longer need permission to access profiles? They don't care about using privacy /at all/. They purposely make the privacy controls hard to use.
