Following a fierce user backlash,
Facebook has tweaked default privacy settings in order to give its users
more control over sharing. Facebook is offering a new and expanded
“Privacy Checkup” tool for people already on Facebook, while new users
on Facebook start with friends audience for posts.
The social network has also switched off
the controversial default setting that led many users to accidentally
share their posts with the public rather with friends or a customised
audience list.
“… going forward, when new people join Facebook, the default audience of their first post will be set to Friends. Previously, for most people, it was set to Public,” says Facebook in a post.
