Facebook Pricacy!

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/06/technology/internet/06facebook.html

This is an article that was posted on the New York Times today. For many of us face book is a great social tool. I personally love to use the chat tool because you cant stay in touch with many people who don't live in your own country, and get an immediate response, whereas on email you have to wait to get a response. This article talks about the constant privacy changes on the website. One thing that struck to me in reading this article was "users discovered a Facebook glitch that gave them access to supposedly private information in the accounts of their friends, like chat conversations. " For many users of the chat like my self this is scary because I would not like anything that is talked about on chat to be seen, because it is all private information. I think with all the users that facebook has they should really get their brains together and figure out a good method for these privacy tweaks, because many people are getting sick of the changes which is causing them to delete their activates which i doubt the owners of facebook are liking!
