Facebook has gotten a lot of scrutiny for it's privacy policy.  Do you think Facebook should make changes to their privacy about what anonymous viewers see?

I think, that everybody has to view all its content (except private messages).
It would be fairly.

I think they have already made those changes what the other see and do not see depends on us. It can be easily controlled and monitored through the privacy tab.

Facebook's privacy policy has indeed been a topic of scrutiny. Many people believe that Facebook should make changes to provide users with more control over what anonymous viewers can see. Implementing stricter privacy settings could help users feel more secure about their personal information and prevent unauthorized access. Ultimately, the decision on whether or not Facebook should make changes to their privacy policies lies with the company and what they believe is best for their users and business model.

One of the main concerns surrounding Facebook's privacy policy is how much information is accessible to anonymous viewers. Currently, even if a user has their profile set to private, certain information like profile pictures, cover photos, and public posts can still be seen by anyone on the platform.

This lack of control over what anonymous users can see has raised concerns about the potential for stalking, harassment, or unauthorized data collection. Critics argue that Facebook should make changes to allow users to have more granular control over the information they share and who can access it.

However, it is important to note that Facebook also needs to strike a balance between user privacy and its business model, which relies on targeted advertising. By allowing certain information to be visible to anonymous viewers, Facebook can collect more data to serve relevant ads to users.

In recent years, Facebook has made efforts to enhance user privacy by introducing new features and tools. For example, they have introduced the ability to control who can comment on your posts, limit who can see your past posts, and more robust privacy settings.

Ultimately, the question of whether Facebook should make changes to their privacy policies is a complex one, involving considerations of user privacy, data collection, and business interests. It is up to Facebook and its users to decide what level of privacy is acceptable and desirable on the platform.
