Facebook invades privacy

When you buy a book or movie online–or make a political contribution–do you want that information automatically shared with the world on Facebook?

Most people would call that a huge invasion of privacy. But this week, Facebook began doing just that. People across the country saw private purchases they made on other sites displayed on their Facebook News Feeds.

Facebook encourages companies to get “word-of-mouth promotion for your business” to “millions” by using the feature that makes this happen. But left behind are the rights of Facebook users.

Let’s get Facebook to stop invading our privacy. Sign the petition at

Then join the Facebook group “Facebook, stop invading my privacy!” and tell your friends.
