svaka takva akcija takodje moze izazvati i negativne reakcije javnosti

Facebook is apparently again considering changes to its Privacy Policy and Statement of Rights and Responsibilities -- and you know how well those tend to go over with Facebook's population.

In a post yesterday, Michael Richter, Facebook's deputy general counsel, announced a proposed change to Facebook's policies "to make way for some exciting new products."

One of those changes would make it possible for Facebook to send your name, photo, friend list and any public information about you and your friends to preapproved third-party Web sites. Richter said the idea is you would get a more personalized experience when visiting the select sites. Users would also be able to opt out of specific Web sites, or from the feature altogether. But take note: opt out means that if this feature is implemented, it will be enabled by default.

The good news is the policy states logging out of Facebook before visiting other sites will prevent them from being able to access your information, regardless of your privacy settings.

With the most recent post, Facebook is describing its plans and requesting comment. However, remember -- Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg says privacy is so 20th century.

tesliana: Odselio sam se kao djete od dvanaest godina, pre skoro cetrdeset godina a moja srpska pismenost je ostala zamrznuta u mojoj seoskoj osnovnoj skoli u zapadnoj "Bosni". Svaki put kad sam dolazio u posjetu, stalno sam bio ponosan jer su me sve bake u selu hvalile kako u opste nisam zaboravio svoj jezik. Uzelo mi je nesto duze vremena dok sam shvatio da su se vremena promjenula i da su se tim mojim bakama djeca i unucad odselila i skolova u gradovima. Kroz ta vremena, sve im je bilo teze i teze da se bas ono pravo razumiju sa svojima - sve dok ja ne dodjem u posjetu. Tek onda su mogle da komuniciraju sa nekim, na njihovom staroseoskom jeziku.

P.S. I ako je neko malo cudo da ja u opste i pisem i govorim srpski, naj draze mi je kad udjem u neki nas forum pa mi skolovaniji nemilosrdno pocnu da sklapaju ili razdvajaju moje "ne" upotrebe. Cim udjem medju Srbe a narocito "Beogradjane", vecini postajem sumnjiv pa me cas posla i "ustasom" nazovu. A kad udjem medju Hrvate, skoro niko da primjeti "cetnika". Djeco moja, eto sta vam je jezik. ;)
