Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg told a few weeks ago that user information would now by default be public. Your name, profile picture, gender, current city, networks, Friends List, and all the pages you subscribe to are now publicly available information on Facebook. Now Everyone can see it.
Zuckerberg said: " We view it as our role in the system to constantly be innovating and be updating what our system is to reflect what the current social norms are. "
Current social norm are the end of privacy? Really?
For years Zuckerberg been talking about the importance of privacy, what/why is that sudden turn over?

It it a way to sell data more easily? It is really toward what we should head? Will it hurt them? Could it be the start of the decline of Facebook? How many people would change to another site(If they keep pushing toward less privacy) if the structure is as good as Facebook and have a privacy feature?
What you guys think about it?
