| If you use FACEBOOK please read! Those sneaky bastards!
As of some time ago (acrophobia), NEW PRIVACY setting called "Instant personalization" that shares data with non-Facebook websites and it is automatically set to "Enable." To Disable
> Go to Account
> Privacy Settings
> Applications and Websites - "Edit your settings" (bottom row)
> Instant Personalization
> Edit or ...customize Settings
> Un-check "Enable".
BTW, if your friends don't do this, they will be sharing information about you. PLEASE COPY & REPOST
This is Facebook's explanation of the "Instant Personalization" feature; Quote:
Our goal is to give you a great social and personalized experience with every application and website you use. We've worked with a select set of partners to personalize your experience as soon as you arrive on their sites.
These partner sites (currently limited to Bing, Rotten Tomatoes, Docs, Pandora, Yelp, and Scribd), can only access the information and content you've already made available to everyone. All our partners are required to respect your information and we've worked closely with them to make sure they do.
When you arrive at one of these sites, you'll see a notification message and a way to turn off the personalized experience on that site.
Instant personalization is different from social plugins. Social plugin content comes directly from Facebook and no information is shared with the websites themselves.
To turn off instant personalization on all partner sites, uncheck the box below. This will prevent these partners from receiving any of your information through instant personalization, even content you have made available to everyone.

I received the same message months ago, this did not happen today.
Our personal info ends up all over the place anyways, hence the amount of spam mail that we receive.

this is why i hate facebook changes..especially if it's privacy updates it seems to always default having our personal info floating around and i'm oblivious to it until some months down the road.

I use this one to keep my privacy settings secure. http://www.reclaimprivacy.org/
It tells you to make a bookmark > go to facebook > open book mark > scan settings and tells you what to fix

Woah, you're way behind. This launched a while ago.
Mine was defaulted as disabled. I'll enable it when it gets more useful, I don't really go to the sites that use it so far.
Edit: Almost nothing is set for everyone to see anyway, guess it doesn't really matter.

Don't put to personal of information up and no harm is done. Its the internet for Christ sakes nothing is sacred here and it shocks me when people are offended for finding out otherwise.
