Being a user of Facebook, I’ve noticed all the changes discussed in “Facebook Privacy Trainwreck” by Danah Boyd. I too, have become unsatisfied with the constant changes they make to the site. The other day I was trying to figure out how to prevent people from commenting on photos or statuses because I have friends that do say inappropriate things and unnecessary comments, and noticed that facebook had taken that feature off earlier this year. I believe that is one of the worst things that have come with the update. I also hate timeline. In the article, Boyd discusses about a queer group and how people couldn’t notice if you joined or left it; timeline now allows people to know everything you do and when you do it, on which day or year. Facebook has become the ultimate site for stalkers and the youth who are using it are just letting them know everything they want to see/hear. Facebook privacy is bad but you agree to those terms when you first click “Sign Up.”
