I'm kinda confused what this post is saying. "Everything is going public," it says, "it's inevitable, and privacy controls are just delaying the inevitable." And then between paragraphs, there's a sudden non-sequitur: "So we're making it so that you can keep private things private in an intuitive way."
I... where did that come from? I laud the effort to take privacy seriously. That's good and something people care about. But how does that follow at all from everything else they said?
(By the way, I have several people who I can't find any data about by casual googling. They're mostly people I went to college with who I failed to keep in contact with. I'm sure if I started digging into govt data, I could get somewhere, but that's a depth I don't feel comfortable plumbing.)
