I just can't understand why so many people (many of my friends included) have a PUBLIC profile on Facebook. All of their posts, thoughts, photos, their comings and goings, etc.
Mine is locked tight as a drum. If you're not a very close friend or family member, all you see is one profile photo and a cover pic of the ocean. That's it. And I rarely comment on public pages or public profiles either, because that ends up in everyone's feed.
My married male friend learned that the hard way by "liking" a bunch of photos of scantily clad ladies. [emoji23] Soon my feed was full of several updates saying "Paul liked this photo".. (With the photo showing) Oh and his comments too "nice ****", etc, etc. Oh boy. Needless to say, it ended up in his wife's feed as well. And his teen kid's feeds. Whoops! He had some 'splainin to do!
Of course if you don't care, that's fine. However, a lot of people still aren't aware that even if *your* personal Facebook is set to private, if you comment on a public page or profile, everyone can see it.
I think mine is set to public. I almost never post photos of the kids, or anything about leaving for vacation or dinner or anything like that. Though, I do need to check personal profile info.
I usually just vent my anger on FB.
