Most of the issues on facebook are caused by USERS. I see people joining public groups daily--some are obvious copyright violations and geared for spam or hoaxes. Yet several people will join them--usually the same friends that click on anything pretty and shiny. They can't be bothered to read. Can't be bothered to think. That's not facebook's problem. Who is dumb enough to post their phone number to a public group?!? Or ask your friends to post in a group?? Hello! E-Mails? FB Msgs? The people involved in this breach are the ones putting themselves out there. Most websites with wall/forum postings are ALL PUBLIC, ALL SEARCHABLE BY GOOGLE OR ANYONE ELSE. I don't know of a discussion board that isn't, so why would my discussion wall be completely private by default? Seems the least likely choice to me.
