Facebook changes privacy settings

[Jazzy]

The updates include new privacy shortcuts, more accessible information about where content will appear and new ways of removing tags from photos.



The firms says that the changes are part of its drive to help users manage content on the site.



The three key elements to the changes are:



Privacy shortcuts - a new icon on the toolbar will allow users to access it from whatever page they are on and asks three key questions - who can see my stuff?, who can contact me?, and how do I stop someone from bothering me?



In-product education - this means that when you post something Facebook will explain where it appears - reminding users that while a post may be hidden from their own timeline it will still appear in search, news feeds and other places on Facebook.



Request and removal tool - allows users to go to a tab and select multiple photos and untag them on their page. They can also send a direct message to the person who tagged them asking them to remove the tags and explaining why they do not want their photo posted.

And then there are those that are simply waiting for Yahoo to go bankrupt and be done with their stupidity.



EVERYTHING they do to their portal and features just makes it worse and more unworkable than the last batch of unneeded nonsensical changes.

Facebook makes its privacy suitable for everyone.

These changes are perfect, especially the schedule for postings it helps to save time.
