Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg recently declared that privacy has become less of a "social norm" on the Internet as users have become more comfortable sharing information.
"It is interesting to looking back...when we got started just in my dorm room at Harvard, the question that a lot of people asked is why would I want to put any information on the Internet at all...people have really gotten comfortable not only sharing more information, and different kinds, but more openly with more people, and that social norm is just something that’s evolved over time," the CEO told the audience. "We view it as our role in the system to constantly be kind of innovating and updating what our system is to reflect what the current social norms are.”
Facebook has been at the center of a great deal of controversy in recent weeks due to changes to its privacy controls. Many users felt that the "recommended" settings by Facebook were an attempt to get users to share more information and ran counter to their claims of protecting user’s information. This debate led several consumer and privacy advocacy groups to file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission Dec. 17.
eWEEK has compiled a list of facts for Facebook users to consider when they what to do something about their privacy.
