Facebook - The Privacy Reality

After seeing a lot of articles appearing on the new facebook privacy changes, I think that the only reasonable response to these and future changes is the following:

Do not post anything on Facebook that you want to keep private

You have to be aware that your posted content and personal information can be sold to a third party without your consent.

Currently, your information can be secured within Facebook using the new privacy settings, however, as has been seen in the recent past, Facebook is highly likely to change their privacy policy in the future.

So, the only control that you as a Facebook user have is to limit the information you provide through this social website.
