Facebook and No More "Privacy"

Facebook, once again, is all over the news in regards to their new terms of use.  One of the major changes included changing the name from "Privacy Policy" to "Data Use Policy".  Personally, I think that whenever someone sees the word "privacy", they are automatically concerned that their privacy will soon be violated.  Since Facebook is free, the article clarifies that they make most of their money from advertising, with some of their funding coming from a cut of the profits from games that are played through Facebook.  If people started to be too concerned with their privacy (which, let's face it, how much do we really have anymore if you are using the Internet?), then Facebook could start to lose users. If they lose users, they are no longer going to be the $100 billion public company that they hoped for.

In a bulleted list, they revealed what some of their newest updates would be to this "Data Use Policy".  The full list can be found in the article below.  This list was made public for all Facebook users to review. And, like in true social media fashion, they are asking for comments about how people feel about them.  They will go into effect on April 27, so start commenting away. I think that I understand pretty well that there is very limited privacy when it comes to Facebook.  Do you think their new terms will change how people feel about using Facebook?  Will it decrease the number of users?
