Over the past few days many friends and business associates have asked me about the current controversy surrounding Facebook's changes to it's privacy policy that gave Facebook a popular social networking site with 175 million users perpetual ownership of user information presumably to be used as a profit making gold mine of data to be sold to marketers now and in the future.
Facebook users and consumer groups revolted in a powerful and effective way. Today, Wednesday February 18 in the heat of intense consumer pressure Facebook made an about face and has agreed to change it's intended policy to sell user information. Here are two very good links that will explain the issue. Read the top link first.
