Facebook (F*c****k) has an idea of permission that goes a lot like this.

“It’s better to beg forgiveness than ask permission!”

Facebook Breaches Customers Trust

When it comes to my privacy and my data, Facebook should not have permission to share my data with Facebook business partners at Facebook’s whim.  I should not have to opt out of sharing my data.  I should be invited to choose to share my data if I so wish.

Facebook shifting its business model without the permission of customers is a blatant breach of trust.

In addition to the changes to Facebook re: “Like” vs “Become a Fan of” Mark Zuckerberg (*ucker****) and his team have made users choose to opt out of making my public information available to Facebook selected businesses when I first arrive on their websites.  Facebook has put a positive spin on the privacy changes highlighting the value of sharing your data with your Facebook friends at the same time as letting the business partners have access to your data.  Knowing Facebook, the last thing I want to do is leave this doorway open for Facebook to add partners at their leisure, opening up my data to anyone they want to share it with.

Facebook has sold access to my data to its business partners and I have chosen to opt out.
