How Safe Is Facebook?

by Kimi on September 29, 2010

How you can make facebook settings safe for your privacy and personal infos.

A few years ago, myspace was very popular social media on the Internet.

Now not anymore, there is another option, facebook.

I have tried to log in to a client’s facebook a few weeks ago, and facebook will automatically detect that the usual login IP address is different. So i have been questioned to guess people’s picture name, and also verify phone number. I was impressed by this security option.



Most popular social media is of course facebook, but is facebook safe? This is the common questions since there are doubts out there if facebook safe.

I feel facebook is safe, because you can set the “privacy settings” to an option where only your friends can view your profile page. The more good thing, you can limit your friends’s access too if you want only some of them can see your profile.

Facebook has more user-friendly and clean interface, it is easy to navigate. blog seo

Just like in any other social media sites, it is very important to be really careful on facebook, do not show your very personal informations to everyone and not seeing people that you don’t know in real.

Privacy and Promotion at one time is very hard simultaneously. I have an incident. We had a lady co-worker in office and we were really nice friends. Cutting jokes and passing all sort of compliments were natural and acceptable in realworld situation.

She posted a picture of herself on facebook. I liked the picture, so wrote a short naughty (not that much) comment. Everybody enjoyed. We talked about it next day when we met.

I was extreme surprised when I received a message in my Facebook inbox with a loud threatening voice. Well I was scared. It was in fact her son who was always informed by FACEBOOK each and every profile update in his mother’s profile!

The incident was not much bad when we met after some days. I said sorry to him (never had to to her mother – she pinches even harder than I had)!

Whenever it comes the safety, privacy, facebook I immediately remember the incident.
