Turning Facebook’s Places Feature Off

by carltown on August 30, 2010

Facebook cares nothing about your security. Facebook defaults to the new Places feature turned on. That means people know where your are. That means if I go to LA and use Facebook, people know no one is at my home in Portland.

Places defaults to ON. You need to be a genius to go through all the steps to turn the Places feature off. Here is a good description of how to do it. Takes a little time.
