What does Facebook know about your behavior?

Facebook KNOWS ALL!!!!  I’ve always been told once you tell Facebook.. it’s stamped for life, so make sure your comment or status is appropriate so that it does not come back to haunt you later on.

Facebook knows if your married, have kids, where you work, your friends, your birthday, and depending on what you blog from… it may even know your current location.  Facebook also knows the products you prefer as well as what type of music you listen to.  If you think about it, especially with Facebook being public, you should limit the amount of information you share.  Not just among friends and family but with Facebook alone.  Even though you’ve made your page private, others still have access to your information.  I’ve heard of cases where the police use Facebook to catch criminals and I’ve even seen instances where people have lost their jobs because of post to Facebook.

Not only does Facebook know ALL of your business… but if you attempt to delete your page… first, the option to delete is not easy to find… but most importantly, your page is not deleted… Its just deactivated which says to me… WHOEVER can still access your information!!
