We all use FB even though we are aware of the low security of our personal data there.

Two things you immediately need to change on FB are "

  1. 1. While on FB, look at your URL address (the very top box on your screen.) If u see "http:" instead of "https:" then u DO NOT have a secure session & can be HACKED. Go to Account - Account Settings - Account Security - click Change. Check box (secure browsing), click Save. FB has automatically set...... it on the ...non-secure setting!
  2.  Facebook will start using your photos in ads that will appear on the profile page of your contacts. It's legal & is mentioned in the fine print when you create your account. To Stop this do the following: Account, Account Settings,then click on Facebook Ads tab at top of screen, choose "No one" on the drop-down menu & save changes.


Go ahead and make the changes..

If anyone has anything else to share please go ahead..
