Fast Takes 42: Facebook's Privacy Mistakes

Facebook's privacy gaffs are nothing new. It seems like they were continual last year. But the real question is whether anyone even cared.

In episode 43 of The BeanCast, Hal Goodtree, Peter Kim and Ben Kunz took on the subject of whether anyone even cared that Facebook had changed the user agreement to own your photos early last year. The end result was they relented to a very vocal minority within the community. But we looked at whether the average user would have even been aware of the issue if Facebook hadn't posted about the problem themselves.

It's an interesting discussion about privacy, damage control and the future of social networks.
