To facebook or not to facebook

you are obviously worried about a lot of things, i think the best thing for you to do would be to not use facebook at all. You can still live your life without it. If you know how to control your impulses that may reveal your personal information to the public, then facebook is alright. set limits(especially time limit, facebook can take away hours from your life, distracting you from things which need more of your attention)

now facebook is no longer a safe place. i would also like to share ideas to save my account as i have one

I think the easiest thing would be not to post essential information online to say the very least. The thing is that social networking has become a bit too social. And it is obvious that there are going to be people who are going to peak into your pages, unless you set things to private and even then...well I don't know. There have been people who have used Facebook as a way to plan some rather seedy things. In the end, the one thing that you must remember is the golden rule of that if it is on the Internet, then it is most certainly not private. When I was on Facebook, I cringed at a lot of what some people thought was okay to post. There is just some information that must remain private and putting it on the Internet in any form is just asking for headaches. Use privacy filters and don't put anything online that will end up screwing you over later.

Privacy controls make things very simple for you in keeping important details of your life safe and secure from those you wish not to see them. You also are fully in control of the "friends" that you chose to add on to your page. It is completely up to you as to the things you chose to talk about or the pictures that you post. You can choose to make those pictures that you upload public or private to the friends on your page or the general public. It is totally up to you the things that you share! Have fun!

There are some simple things you can do to make Facebook safer. Be sure to read their privacy controls and implement them. Do not add people you do not know. Don't post pictures of family that you will regret. Ultimately though if you never post or interact with friends, there is no real reason to make an account. Many people are more savvy to Facebook now and use the privacy controls to stop just anyone from reading their comments.
