I dont use any application and I turned off the app platform. I think its the best thing to do right now. By doing that, you dont have to set anything else, nothing is shared with any app.
The only downside to this is that some apps might decide to force Facebook on you (hello Spotify), but I was lucky enough to have an account before they went Facebook-hungry, so I am all set.
- raganwald 15y agoIf you turn off the app platform, you MUST be careful not to turn it back on. If you authorize any app, for any reason, you turn the platform back on AND Facebook restores the default sharing preferences, which at the moment seem to be that your friends’ apps can read everything about you except for your sexual preference and religion.
- why-el 15y agoI figured. Thanks for the tip. And I actually had an idea of a Facebook app and was wondering whether things change in that regard. Of course you would want to be the first customer of your app. I wonder how people who share concerns like me deal with these kinds of situations.
