subject: Security Tips Offered by Facebook [print this page] Most internet users have their own Facebook accounts, making it one of the top social networking sites today. Its popularity could be accounted for by its functionality. It brings people closer together, it provides free advertisements for businesses, and it even entertains people with its games. However, it could not be avoided that it will be exploited, bringing harm to its users. Nevertheless, Facebook has long recognized the fact that many would try to abuse the network and would make use of it for their destructive personal intentions. And so, in response, Facebook has provided for several means by which Facebook users could protect themselves.
One such means is the Facebook Privacy Settings which provides options that let the account owner control who could access his/her personal information. For example, the user could set that only people on his/her friends list could view the contents of his/her page. He/She could also choose to allow anybody to see whatever is on his/her page. A Block List is also included in the page in which the user could specify people and e-mail addresses which he/she would want to prevent contact with, without the blocked person or e-mail address knowing.
The Safety Center which provides specific information for children, parents, educators, and law enforcement, is a new addition to Facebook's security cache. A section in this feature is the Safety for Teens section which is concerned with certain issues common to teens such as bullying, public bad-mouthing, as well as procedures on how to report abuse by other users. For example, if you would like the removal of an unbecoming photo that was uploaded and posted by a user, Facebook will only do so if the photo violates the Statement Rights and Responsibilities.
Another section of the Safety Center, the Safety for Parents section, explains what should be done in particular instances such as when a child has viewed an inappropriate content on a Facebook page, when the need to help a child report abusive conduct arise, and when you want to delete an account of a chills that is below 13 years of age. This section contains links to in-depth articles regarding security for teens online by the Common Sense Media, but much of the information that could be found in this section echoes the information found on the Safety for Teens page.
The social networking site had already provided us with the necessary tools to protect the users, especially the young ones, from abuse. Be sur
