New Facebook Privacy Settings Under Scrutiny

These are the measures parents have been asking for and now Facebook has made an attempt to deliver them, but they have not given you much of a choice about it. Facebook has insisted its members review their privacy settings to control what other Facebook members can see about them.  But the real problem is that these measures only go halfway. The site has done little to address the issue of privacy in terms of what Facebook application developers can know. In fact, one option that allowed users to not share info with app developers seems to have disappeared.
