Facebook intends to change their terms and conditions thus allowing itself to transmit the data of their customers to third parties and partner companies. This is not acceptable and Facebook users should be informed to who the company intends to pass them. Also should the user asked for authorization every time the company intends to forward these information.
Social networks like Facebook. MySpace or Linkein by the end of the day collect data from their customers and it remains a mistery to the end-user about their final usage.
As long a the explicit authorization of passing private enduser dat to third party is not implemented, I would recommends not to use these social networks or to replace your personal information with fictive data.
