We’ve already earned some great feedback on our new Facebook privacy application, PrivacyDefender, but today’s article at UrbanDaddy.com may be the best yet. Comparing PrivacyDefender to a virtual bouncer for your Facebook profile, the Urban Daddy article discusses how keeping your Facebook account secure is a necessity in the Internet age.
From the article:
“[PrivacyDefender] is like having a bouncer for that most exclusive club of all: your online circle of friends (and “Friends”). You’ll log on to the app (which, perhaps ironically, means giving PrivacyDefender some access to your account). Then, you’ll see a dazzling array of colors, laid out in a circle symbolizing how vulnerable your account is. (Long story short: red = bad.)
From there, if you’re an exhibitionist, you probably don’t need to touch anything. If you believe in total privacy, well, you shouldn’t be on Facebook. But if you want something in between, you’ll set everything to green, and click “Fix My Privacy.” Which means you and only you will decide if your mother gets to see that picture of you taking the house on black 26 in Monte Carlo yesterday.
She’ll be so proud.”
Since we launched PrivacyDefender last week, over 10,000 people have downloaded the app. If you haven’t used PrivacyDefender to manage your Facebook privacy settings yet, you can install the application here.
