Facebook Personalization and Privacy Issues

Nowadays people get in touch with each other easily by social media like Facebook which seem to be the most popular social network that people have been using. The good thing to have this kind of social network is that people can get in touch and update their life for their friends to see on what ever things they like. But this of course doesn't just only going to have only the good things that happen it also have a negative side of it too. For example from this Article their is one man who said,

"Facebook is so greedy and has no more respect for its members privacy somehow allows hackers or third parties to use my e-mail to soliciting to my contacts, making them believe that I was trying to contact them with a message. Thanks facebook you just became one of the bad guys. Thats crazy i cant even tell you how many time i had to change my password cause someone hack into it." 

This shows that by posting your personalization data onto this kind of Social Network is not a good idea people can get access to them easily even though you did not allow other people to do so rather than your friends. Their are a lot of hacker out there who might want your data for what ever purpose. So this have become some of the personalization and privacy issues with the social network. Is it a good idea to give out information like this through Internet base.
