    Do you have privacy issues on Facebook?

    Like your profile is not as private as you would like it to be...

    No. I used to have my profile completely open to the public, but that changed after someone tried to make a duplicate and pass themselves off as me. Now everything is fairly concealed and you have to be my friend to see most of the information. That suits me just fine.

    Yes, this is a huge issue for me. Because of the new privacy settings, "friends of friends" can see posts that my friends liked/commented on. Because of my line of work, I like to keep a clear line between my public/professional and private lives. It's really difficult to do this with Facebook's new settings.

    Yes, they change their privacy settings every now and then exploiting the user's private information further. This is good for Cyber stalkers who always are looking for such opportunities to do something bad to someone. Methods like social engineering to exploit some one are incredibly easy to perform, specially with the current security setting. We have to watch every move now, when posting something, uploading photo, commenting etc. Unfortunately most people don't realize this and often get exploited.

    No, I don't have privacy issues with facebook anymore because I don't give them any detailed information about anything, even my closest friends. I don't know anyone in my facebook account

    Happy that Jedi and whoisbid are ok with the privacy setting, though I do agree with Hassam that nobody should get that much info about us that we don't want to offer... in my case my setting keeps on being changed to public!!! I may have to see if my page is being hacked.
    MsBizPro I advise you to have two different pages for business and personal purposes. I definitely don't put any personal pics, sensitive information and remove any comment that is not appropriate from friends... some can no more appear on my page because of subject, language or other issues...just keeping clean and safe.
    Lots of people have had problems or lost their job because they disclose way too much on facebook.

    No, its set up for only my friends to view. If I didn't want them seeing anything I wouldnt have added them. Also if someone posts something I don't like I can always remove it, and block the person if I have to.

    I'm really not that fond of Facebook, to me it's a set up.
