18. Conclusion
• Always think before you post. Just like anything else you post on web or send in an email,
information you share on Facebook can be copied or re-shared by anyone who can see it.
• Although you choose with whom you share, there may be ways for others to determine
information about you.
For-example, if you hide your birthday so no one can see it on your timeline, but friends
post “happy Birthday” on your timeline, people may determine your birthday.
• When you comment on or “like” someone else’s story, or write on their timeline, that person gets
to select the audience.
For example, if a friend posts a Public story and you comment on it, your comment will be
Public. Often, you can see the audience someone selected for their story before you post a
comment; however, the person who posted the story may later change their audience.
• You can control who can see the Facebook Pages you've "liked" by visiting your timeline, clicking
on the Likes box on your timeline, and then clicking "Edit."
• Sometimes you will not see a sharing icon when you post something (like when you write on a
Page's wall or comment on a news article that uses our comments plugin). This is because some
types of stories are always public stories. As a general rule, you should assume that if you do not
see a sharing icon, the information will be publicly available.
