Following the recent Facebook privacy scandal, have you changed your behaviour on Facebook? Are you conscious about how much you share and are you worried about your privacy?

Facebook has proved to be a dishonest, sneaky and not to be trusted organisation time and time again. They are just like the big banks. I guess it's not their fault people are so silly in providing FB with all their life details....I mean WHY would anyone think it is necessary to provide their REAL birthdate etc to a mob like FB???
The real problem is they are so sneaky in WHAT information they are collecting from people and what they are doing with it. FB exists for one reason only and people should be aware of it and stop behaving so silly with FB just to see their picture online.
THE ONLY REASON FB exists is to make money! That's it. It is their to collect as much information as possible from users, sell the information to WHOEVER will pay for it and attract advertisers based on the information it has harvested and supplied to them.
FB does NOT exist to be your 'friend'. That's absolute rubbish. It is very deceitful and untrustworthy organisation but the recent scandals will not stop people being careless with their info as it has become a necessity for people to let their 'friends' know when they are having a coffee or what their dog is up to.
