之前各大科技博客和用户时刻在抨击facebook的隐私政策,甚至部分用户还敲定了5月31日为facebook用户集体潜逃日。

facebook的隐私政策真这么让人深恶痛绝吗,只能是众矢之的?美国顶尖杂志时代周刊5月31日期将针对facebook目前的隐私问题和未来互联网的趋势特征作进一步的探讨。

尽管facebook正在着力修改他们的隐私设置方便用户,但是更多的问题是有多少用户愿意和每一个人去分享属于他们个人的一些信息?

但是,有点遗憾的是文章没有针对这样的问题做进一步的阐述,取而代之的是强调了马克-扎克伯格的宣传,“啊,facebook已经进行修正了,未来一切都会好起来的(the article highlights Mark Zuckerberg’s well publicized position that privacy is changing and the world is becoming more transparent)”。从用户的期待性上,哦,这样的描述的确不是那么让人期待的。马克-扎克伯格表示,用户不是要完全的隐私,也不是要完全的分享,他们要的是只是一个控制权,哪些是他们愿意分享的,哪些他们更加喜欢一个人看的。

The Time magazine cover story for the May 31st edition puts Facebook privacy at the center of the discussion about the future of the internet (and the company). While Facebook is working hard to release new privacy settings that make things more simple for users, the question of how much users are willing (and should be expected) to share is on everybody’s minds.

Ultimately, very little that’s new is revealed in the article. Instead, the article highlights Mark Zuckerberg’s well publicized position that privacy is changing and the world is becoming more transparent. As he tells Time Magazine, “What people want isn’t complete privacy. It isn’t that they want secrecy. It’s that they want control over what they share and what they don’t.”

Additionally, Dan Fletcher, who wrote the Time Magazine piece argues that Mark Zuckerberg needs to be more transparent with the public and “make his case for an era of openness”. While making his case is something that I don’t think is necessary, being transparent about how and why the company is choosing to implement settings the way that they have is critical.

What has become pretty clear at this point is that change is afoot at Facebook. While there is ongoing debate about how Facebook will implement privacy settings in the future, there should be a formal statement from Mark Zuckerberg in the coming days at which point new privacy settings will be announced.
