Facebook has stuck to their promise of introducing new privacy settings to their recently beleaguered social networking site, where it allows users to have more control over their personal information as well as items that they share in an easier manner. This new control will make it a whole lot easier to share on Facebook with friends, and friends of friends or everyone in but a solitary click. All settings will be immediately applied and displayed in a grid, and you can customize your settings to control your level of sharing. Apart from that, said settings will appear on a single page. Alternatively, there is the choice of turning off Facebook Platform applications and websites completely, which translates to information not being shared with applications at all - this can be done by unchecking the box "Enable instant personalization." If you have a Facebook account, are you happy with the overhauls made? Expect these new privacy changes to roll out to users over the next couple of weeks.
