1. You Will Not Believe How Much
Information Facebook Has on You!

2. Facebook has never been too overly
concerned about privacy, which is why
they are always in the news about it.
With the progression to even more
intrusive policies with their new Open
Graph plans, this doesn’t look like it’s
going to get any better.

3. You know Facebook tracks you. They
have for ages. But did you know that
they have about 800 pages of
information about their average user?

4. That’s 800 pages of personal
information about your life, available
for use. Social media and the pursuit
of a fully customized online user
experience, requires some sacrifices in
the privacy department. It’s only when
they’ve learned everything about you,
that they can start selling you stuff you
really want. It’s customer profiling, and
it’s the future of sales on the internet.

5. Intimidating or Progressive?

6. It’s never nice when strange people
can predict your behavior, or influence
it – based on some document you’ve
never seen before. In Europe, there’s a
law that let’s you see any stored info
about yourself.

7. That’s how this 800 page debacle was
exposed. In this document there are
57 subsections, each detailing a part of
your Facebook behavior, preferences
or movements on the site.

8. Here are a few things Facebook
notices about your behavior:

9. All personal information, naturally –
including name, address, phone
numbers, gender, relationships, email
addresses, credit cards, and all
transactions performed on the site.

10. It records all of your chat messages,
even the ones you delete.

11. It tracks how you use Facebook, which
PC’s, phones or alternative devices you
use and what their details are.

12. It records who has poked you, and
who you’ve poked since you signed up.

13. It lists which events you’ve been to,
when you’ve been invited and your
choices in whether to go or not.

14. Facebook tracks who you ‘friend’ and
who you ‘de-friend,’ on your profile.

15. It lists details about the apps you use,
and even tracks your behavior through
cookies when you’re NOT logged into
Facebook.

16. Granted, Facebook is collecting this
information to form a profile on you.
It’s not doing it for any nefarious
reasons, as certain alarmists would
have you believe. Facebook is simply
moving towards open sharing – which
has no room for privacy.

17. If you don’t want it to be online, don’t
put it there. In the future, you’ll surf
the net and will only have to look at
ads and messages that are relevant to
your tastes.

18. It’s a grand data mining expedition,
and it can only end up helping you, the
consumer, buy more of the things you
like. It’s not so bad when you put it
that way now is it? At the end of the
day it still boils down to choice.

19. If you don’t want to buy a new vacuum
cleaner, you don’t have to. No matter
how many sneaky messages are
inserted into your daily surf time,
prompting you to do it.

20. Yes, Facebook has 800 pages of
information about each and every one
of us. And there will always be those
that are terrified by this prospect. But
the social internet is not about privacy.
It’s about sharing, connecting and
consuming. If Facebook can improve
the user experience for us, we say go
ahead!
