It seems that more and more men are being 'caught in the act' by being stupid on Facebook. In the United States, there is a considerable amount of divorce litigation where the woman is finding out about their husband's affair on Facebook. Men are not selecting the appropriate privacy level, and when they interact with their 'mistress du jour', the affair becomes public knowledge.
Interestingly enough, the privacy rules on Facebook are a country-by-country setting.
In Facebook, the more that you make your personal information public knowledge, the better that Facebook likes it because that gives more content to search engines. This means that when someone types in a search phrase in Google or Bing, they may actually show a personal conversation that you had with someone if it is on topic. Of course if you click on the Facebook page that shows up that personal conversation, then Facebook gets to make money from advertising on that page.
The Canadian privacy commissioner recently made worldwide headlines by taking on Facebook and forcing them to improve the default privacy of Canadians.
In other countries, you are on your own. In the United States, you must be on top of your own privacy settings to make sure that you are not exposed. And even if your personal account is private, do you know the privacy setting of your mistress?
American Divorce Lawyers have really twigged onto Facebook expose's in the last couple of years, and it has become a multi-million dollar godsend to them.
If you are seeing women on the side, under no circumstances should you talk on Facebook.
