I wrote a blog entry over on Connect757 this morning about the lack of onine privacy on the social networking sites, facebook in particular, and google.

In my view, these businesses essentially exist to disttribute informattion about you. It's their most valuable asset. The idea that they will make it easy for you to keep your information private is wishful thinking. They willl always be tempted to sell information about you: your friends, your purchasing habits, your browsing habits, your like and dislikes, and anything else they can find that might make them a buck or three. Their ownership will demand it.

So imagine my surprise whenn I got home tonight and saw an article mentioning that facebook has once again revamped their privacy policy and now proviide a single click method of keeping all your information private.

What am I missing? I will not be rejoining facebook after deleting my account a couple of weeks ago.
