Some new YouTube videos about Facebook privacy

Tweet


I was helping a friend today who had gotten off of Facebook because of privacy concerns. Of course, I wanted to let her know about the new Facebook privacy options in case she wanted to go back to Facebook.
I found three videos on YouTube that I shared with her. Now I can share them here with you. Three experts tell about what Facebook has in terms of security, and also what they do not have.
Here is one link:

And another:
Facebook privacy settings - what you need to know:

And another good one:

I think the best advice anyone can give about Facebook, and about the whole web in general is NOT to post anything online that you would not put on a public postcard. In other words, Facebook is just The Internet configured for ease of use. 
But I think it is a lot of fun anyhow!
