| Even more important than privacy is to keep from getting hacked. Facebook security is said to be very low (your account may be taken over, your computer address book may be accessed). Help avoid this by 1) using gmail, create a new email address just for Facebook. 2) use a password for this new email account that you don't use anywhere else. 3) use another unique password to access your Facebook account. 4) don't trust that email from a Facebook friend is real. Their account may have been hacked. A good privacy guide for Facebook can be found here. Do not reveal your telephone, address, or any contact information (including your email address). | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
