Facebook and your privacy

FACEBOOK AND PRIVACY

Have recently emerged in our country a new way to connect with our friends whom we had not seen for some time, as groups of college or university, or that people can see our photos from the last trip we did and so you stop to have more things are disseminated through social networking sites such this is fever arising on Facebook, MySpace and Hi5.

Perhaps the most popular of these networks is Facebook, which was created by students at Harvard University, but later opened to all persons having an email account. The U.S. has the largest number of users, followed by Canada, England, Colombia, Mexico, Brazil and Argentina.

These social networks allow people to reveal whether you want data that could be disseminated and known by all people have access to the network, considering that the address is usually placed where we live, our habits, our family, etc., And What many people do not realize is that the information contained on these social networks are free for the whole country and around the world.

If we analyze this last point would be concerned that this information be made available around the world, still has a positive side which is able to contact everyone we know, but the downside of all this is that many are using antisocial this information to commit kidnapping Express, which have increased in recent days.

In these social networks can know the direction, groups of friends we have, places we usually frequent, type of vehicle, to the place where we work, and several cases have been reported in the country where people who have been victims of this type of theft claim that many of the photos that showed offenders were posted on Facebook, in some cities in our country there have been cases like these.

The recommendation to follow is to be placed as little information as possible and ensure that the contacts that we place are known, and unknown place, if we are on Facebook, the Settings option located at the top has the option of privacy settings, with which can reach the option "Only my friends? instead of putting "My Networks and Friends?, enabling this option will ensure that persons belonging to Venezuela across the network can not access that only you and your friends can do.

I even go further. In particular, I am always adding people I know or think I know, and often accept invitations from people who do not even know because I think maybe I know from somewhere. So the problem is that among my friends (from Facebook) there are people who do not even know, in turn, some people do not know but I have great esteem, and simply accepted his invitation not to fall "heavy?.

Then, the solution is as follows. It should go to the tab "friends?, And in the upper left side there is an option that says" Create list of friends?. You have to click on that option where the system will ask the name you want to place the list. I in particular, I put "family?, But that list to join either family how my best friends and acquaintances, which, I'm sure they (not fakes) and they are people who want to see my photos . Once entered the name, Facebook will ask me to enter the people I want on that list. I go back and repeat, are the people whom I have known enough confidence to show my photos.

Once created, the group must go into each of the albums of photos and video we have created, and go to 1) edit album, 2) configuration, 3) place that album was going to see "JUST SOME FRIENDS? , 4) Facebook will open a text box where you enter the name of the friends who see the photos, in which one introduced the name of the list created, in my case, "family?.

In conclusion, my photo albums are going to see, just some friends, and are not listed in my list created for that purpose.
