Do the privacy settings on facebook ruin the fun for you?

Asked by JLeslie (65419points) June 22nd, 2011

I really hate that when I post on another person’s status, and they allow everyone to see their posts, the whole world, even people who are my friends, who are not friends of the original person who wrote the status, can see the post. It is illogical to me that when I post on someone else’s wall, on their thread, my friends see it on their own wall in their news feed. I have gotten to the point where I simply cannot write anything about politics or religion on facebook I think. I find that very frustrating.

Also, if I am part of a group, can everyone in the group now see all of my information that all my friends can? Even if I am not friends with them. Is being in a group like being a friend?

I realize I should never put anything on facebook that I would not put on the front page of the New York Times, even if I think my privacy settng are ok. It is the internet afterall.

What else pisses you off about facebook?
