What's so bad about the new policy? Millions of people use Facebook with no issues as long as you secure your account and adjust the privacy settings after agreeing.

Yeah man...of coarse millions of people use FB with no problems.
And having a "secure" account has nothing to do with it. In a way. It's not like I'm afraid to new policy will allow people to access my account.
It's the principle of the matter. Nothing has changed...except the agreement that up must agree with...the one that I do NOT agree with...
That is all it is...I don't agree with the new policy...plain and simple..nothing more...nothing less.
First of all, they change the name of the document from "Privacy Policy" to "Data Use Policy". That basically says enough rite there.
The new Facebook policy clearly states that they won’t allow any misuse of private information but they’re definitely opening the gates a little wider.
The information is just a bit easier to access. No...not for other FB users...for "developers of games". Yeah man,,...the security settings you cabaret in FB have absolutely no effect...it's designed specifically so developers can "target" specific users to better suggest games...like the ones that your closest friends play for example.
Other changes include a lessening of responsibility for click fraud in section 11. It used to state “We do, however, have systems that detect and filter certain suspicious click activity.” The new phrasing is “We have systems that attempt to detect and filter certain click activity.” Attempt, instead of “we do” and they removed suspicious. I don't like that. It may not seem a bit deal...and it probably is not...but as I said....it's the principle of the matter. I'm not the only person that deleted account because if the new policy...thousands I'd people have done the same I'm sure.
see these changes as Facebook coming clean about the facts really(I know..who would have thought). They are in the data business and by using their free service, you’re giving them the right to use your data. It’s as simple as that.
