7 Privacy Concerns For Facebook
If you click on the link, it will take you to a news article about 7 privacy concerns for the new Facebook timeline. Facebook is tracking your every move, everywhere your going, what your listening to every moment. According to Facebook’s privacy policy: “We receive data from the computer, mobile phone or other device you use to access Facebook. This may include your IP address, location, the type of browser you use, or the pages you visit.” This data is collected every time, even when a friend of yours has GPS turned on and tags you in a picture she’s uploading from her mobile phone.

This should be a concerning matter. Yet none of us even seem to care we're being tracked. What if someone who works for Facebook decided to use our personal information for their own benefit? What if they sent your phone number or email to different advertising websites? There are so many different scenarios! We all need to start paying more attention! :)
