Facebook Fiasco
As many of you are no doubt aware, Facebook implemented some changes to the website, adding some new features. To say these features have not been well received is an understatement of gigantic proportions. I have a couple points to make.
Many Facebookers are upset that certain information is so readily accessible with the new feeds. Okay, fine. But let's get one thing straight: this is all information that a) was already available according to the privacy policy we all agreed to when we signed up, and b) you can turn off the feeds at any moment.
The idea that Facebok has been malicious or deceitful is ridiculous. Certain Facebook users are simply making up reasons to complain: one user wants to boycott Facebook because (among other reasons) it hasn't listened to users' complaints. By noon the next day Facebook's head honcho had responded. That seems like pretty quick customer service to me. Ever called Dell?
Are we so rights-oriented and impatient that this little Facebook fiasco merits such a response?
