Social networking giant Facebook, the largest such site in the U.S., recently has been urging users to update their privacy settings in connection with ongoing changes to the service. The changes coincide with the recent deal between Facebook and Internet search giant Google Inc. (GOOG) to bring data from the social network into the search engine as real-time data.
Many Facebook users are finding that parts of their profiles are now public, whether or not they want them to be. Facebook may share public information with software developers who build services for Facebook users. Concerns over privacy have prompted 10 privacy organizations, lead by the Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC), to file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
