Based on what I've read and understood in the
article given, I'm always aware of Facebook's privacy issue. Since FB is connected around the world, that means that our privacy are all around. As for myself, I know my limits. I can post anything I like, like photos, videos, statuses but I always set my privacy as 'to be view by friends only'. Moreover, it is definitely a NO for me to post handphone number and address. I find it really dangerous posting them, and if I see my close friends do so, I'd also advice them to take it off. I just don't want my friends and myself being harm unknowingly.
In order to track our login, we can also check them at our FB;
Accounts Settings > Security > Active Session (here we can see which device we used and type of browser as well as time and location of login). This is how we can keep track to avoid 'unwanted' people who hack our account.
After knowing this issue, I will still stay on FB because FB is a place where I have my groups assignment discussion, class group where all announcements and notices will be posted there. Besides that, I also have my clubs groups and all sort of friends group (like highschool friends groups and so) in order for me to connect. My chat box is also used as an instant email where people send me attachments and stuff. Therefore, I think that FB is a very important tool for me in serious formal matters. If I were to deactivate my FB, I think I'll be a pity-patty out there.
"it is definitely a NO for me to post handphone number and address."
ReplyDeleteSame for me. I'm very sensitive of people posting their personal info especially handphone number and address as Facebook statuses/comments to their friends. There's a personal message system provided by Facebook. It would be much better if the users learn how to use it.
Yup. And the worst part when posting handphone number at FB, people who uses smartphone, the number will automatically sync to their address book (this only happens if they are 'friends' in FB). So in this case, it's very easy for people to have your personal info, and it's dangerous!
DeleteYa,I agree with what you mention no post our handphone number and address. Both of these contact are the very easier way to give people to contact with you and find out where you staying. let's say if some stranger know your phone number and make phone harassment to you, you will be trouble that time. It is very dangerous. So we need to proper set up our privacy.
