The new facebook privacy default is to let everyone on the Internet see your posts, like your status updates? -- nm - adventy97 Dec 10, 04:18 3
- Not sure. I'm doing the "upgrade" now and all mine default to "Old Settings" except those I had already set to "Friends of Friends" -- nm - oblique Dec 10, 04:46 2
  - I did the same thing. That "Everyone" option is a little unnerving. -- nm - Jelly Dec 10, 04:58 1

  - I'm sure it is. I'm not really talking box office here. -- nm - Reagen Dec 9, 22:08
  - With Christmas Day being a Friday I don't see a downside. -- nm - Qale Dec 9, 22:00
