For example, I was doing my regular check-up on my online presence, and I found that Facebook was sharing with the world several new "Favorites" of mine, such as music, books, and other... well, private things. I was confounded because to my knowledge I had set "Friends of Friends" as pretty much the circle of privacy for everything.
So to a solution:
- View your profile
- Click "Likes" under the "Apps" section
- There you will find the section labelled, "Favorites"
(seriously, monkeys are doing FB's semantic design) - Click "Edit" and finally you may discover like I did, that all this is still Public
To be fair, I don't think I ever edited these privacy settings because I never added anything to my "Favorites." But what I've learned is that "Liking" things automatically adds those things to my "Favorites."
Can someone inform FB that there is a world of difference between "Liking" something and calling something my "Favorite?"
