Facebook Privacy Scanner -

This site claims to provide "an independent and open tool for scanning your Facebook privacy settings."  Some of you out there might want to give it a whirl.  You'll need to log into your Facebook account first, then bring up the Privacy Settings page, then run the web app.


Although they add this little tidbit:

"NOTE  this scanner is not fully compatible with the latest Facebook privacy settings, so please be sure you check your privacy settings manually yourself.  "


http://www.reclaimprivacy.org/


They include a few more articles;

It sounds interesting for me about facebook privacy scanner. I will try it also I think this was very helpful for us as we want sometimes to keep private other information on facebook. Thank you for sharing that information for us.
