Facebook Tries to Calm Privacy Fears
By
Who owns and controls your Facebook information? Many have wondered this and the question was debated over the holiday weekend when Facebook CEO, Mark Zuckerman addressed the question in a blog post. He sort of gave us an answer when he noted that the 5-year old Facebook’s Terms of Service had undergone a major revision.
Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook CEO, replied yesterday in a blog post: “Our philosophy is that people own their information and control whom they share it with. When a person shares information on Facebook, they first need to grant Facebook a license to use that information so that we can show it to the other people they’ve asked us to share it with. Without this license, we couldn’t help people share that information.”
