Privacy Issues for Facebook Users

Almost six months ago in July 2010, Mark Zuckerberg celebrated Facebook's envious success as it reached to 500 million users. Facebook now plays an indispensable social network bridge that is connecting people across the social and geographical boundaries into the virtual world. But, how private and secured is Facebook?


Nicholas Jackson's recent write up at the Atlantic.com "Stealth Mode: Making Yourself Nearly Invisible on Facebook" shows how you can manage your privacy at Facebook without compromising too much personal information.
