Facebook blowback: What's the upshot for social media?


TOPIC QUESTIONS
Q1) Has Facebook gone too far with "Open Graph," infringing on our notions of "private" information?
Q2) What's the disconnect between the elites and the 425 million users who could care less?
Q3) Marketers are salivating over the troves of FB members' personal information that has become public. Is this a land mine waiting to go off?

Word is, Facebook is seemingly once again caught off guard & is discussing modifications to Open Graph. What do y'all think about it? #sm60

I think a lot of these new Facebook capabilities are pretty cool. It's hard to say how widespread public outrage is tho. #sm60

Aren't security and privacy pretty inextricably linked? It's about security of your own data, no? #sm60

I agree tho Facebook points out that 10 million more people have joined since they announced Open Graph last month. #sm60
Yes, it's an odd business model. But I love fact that Facebook is constantly iterating. Big businesses rarely push envelope. #sm60
Interesting to see coming to Facebook's defense again: http://tcrn.ch/as8wzJ #sm60

Agree, , few folks know what Open Graph is. Here are some of the new features (scroll down): http://bit.ly/aCWGxl #sm60
. I don't think there's been any slowdown in FB's growth, so wondering if this is an issue avg. user doesn't care/know about #sm60

Q2: Some marketers are salivating over troves of FB members' personal info that's now public. Is this a land mine waiting to go off? #sm60
http://youropenbook.com is new search engine that searches status updates/public info on Facebook. (Not responding now 4 some reason) #sm60
RT : I think some marketers will get themselves in trouble with access to this info, eventually. Backlash always comes #sm60
RT : Read for counter viewpoint. Younger generations upset when they understand implications. #sm60
. I agree, I think Facebook will come out of this ok, but lost trust is awfully hard to regain. #FB #SM60
. I've pretty much been emulating . The info I put up on Facebook is stuff I'm comfortable sharing with public. #SM60
Faceook, privacy and the law video: http://bit.ly/cEjp9q #sm60
“Face­book is becom­ing the Web. Every­thing you need is there. .. It is the universe.” - Facebook investor Ron Conway. #sm60
I think Conway's sentiment is what's setting off some alarms. If Facebook is "becoming" the Web, its actions matter hugely. #sm60

. For sure. The masses don't lead the pundits, that would just be wrong. #sm60
RT : YourOpenBook.com was a definite eye opener for me. It's amazing what some people will share online. #SM60
. I think Facebook is naive if it thinks third parties will make benign use of its members' public data. #sm60
Read recently that blippy.com raised millions in funding for people who want to share their purchasing info online. #sm60
mike argues that blippy.com proves people don't care about privacy anymore, but i think this is a tiny, tiny minority. #sm60
. FB would like to think it's becoming the Web, & i give it kudos for recent moves toward openness, but it ain't the Web. #sm60
. I disagree. Just bec Facebook is free doesn't mean we have no right to complain. Ultimately tho we're free to go elsewhere #sm60
RT : For me, that's the biggy. This auto-generated content. #sm60
Guessing that few people have heard of Diaspora, the still unlaunched open source alternative to FB: http://bit.ly/dnDgSM #sm60
. Perhaps Facebook is nervous about a public statement blowing up on them, or providing legal grist for coming lawsuits. #sm60
RT : there are other alternatives like and Appleseed and other. more at http://is.gd/ceQg3 #sm60
. Diaspora, because it will happen in this decade. :~) #sm60
. Trouble with open source alternatives is they'll need tens of millions to offer anything comparable to Facebook. #sm60
As for Q3, I think other social sites will now think twice before being (cavalier? hubristic?) about releasing members' data. #sm60
But for now, Facebook is the site that really matters, given its astonishing stats: http://bit.ly/aCWGxl #sm60
Thanks, , for the adrenaline rush this morning. Tweetchat rocks! Will be happy to carry on for a bit. #sm60
I suppose it's ironic that we did this on Twitter rather than Facebook. So far, Twitter hasn't shown world domination tendencies. #sm60
Thanks , I do feel badly about the Facebook pile-on, but I'm doing it out of love. #sm60
