1.8 Facebook sorry

According to the article, Facebook's new system of tagging has caused problems of privacy with its users. The problem is that the users' photos are automatically tagged without their permission. The article did say that Facebook has apologized for the inconvenience to its users. However, users are still angry with Facebook's sharing personal information as a default function. The issue is users want to control over who can tag or not tag their photos.

I think that it is a difficult issue to solve. It will take a long time to be useful. Facebook should have noticed users what Tag Suggestions were and whether they were used by default or not before introducing them. This privacy issue may affect to Facebook that more Internet users who have never used the social natwork may become more afraid of security.
