I too am very wary about joining facebook

I saw the video a few weeks ago

A friend has been trying to pursuade me that FACEBOOK have fixed all their issues.........

I am cynical..... so I went looking and this is what I found so far.

Facebook has reverted to its old terms of service after a backlash from users.

Over the weekend a ruckus ensued after it was discovered that Facebook changed two sentences to its terms of service. Originally, Facebook allowed users to delete all of their uploaded content and walk away with only archived copies left behind. That clause disappeared meaning that Facebook could continue to use your content after you quit.

Jennifer Leggio: Facebook faces up to controversy, reverts TOS, turns to users for input

Enter the hubbub. Groups against Facebook surfaced (on Facebook of course). Privacy advocates screamed. The problem: Facebook tweaked its terms without any heads up and gave itself broad rights over user content.

Facebook retreated a day later.

In a blog post, Facebook chief Mark Zuckerberg said:

A couple of weeks ago, we revised our terms of use hoping to clarify some parts for our users. Over the past couple of days, we received a lot of questions and comments about the changes and what they mean for people and their information. Based on this feedback, we have decided to return to our previous terms of use while we resolve the issues that people have raised.

Many of us at Facebook spent most of today discussing how best to move forward. One approach would have been to quickly amend the new terms with new language to clarify our positions further. Another approach was simply to revert to our old terms while we begin working on our next version. As we thought through this, we reached out to respected organizations to get their input.

Going forward, we’ve decided to take a new approach towards developing our terms. We concluded that returning to our previous terms was the right thing for now.

The key words there are “for now.”

Zuckerberg said that the next version of the TOS will have a “substantial revision.” However, users will have a say in the crafting of the privacy policy.

Overall, this approach is better. Facebook has to give users a heads up on privacy changes. While we’re pondering a new TOS and privacy changes here’s what needs to happen everywhere:

Privacy policies need to be written in English;

Privacy policies need a nutrition label of sorts so I know what’s going on at a glance;

Users need to realize they have very little privacy rights in the first place;

But users should be given a heads up to privacy policy changes and be allowed to opt out in a certain window.
