Secure Facebook in One Easy Step with SaveFace by Untangle
Facebook has been rightly criticized recently for its increasingly complicated privacy settings. Several high-profile users in the tech community have left Facebook (after carefully deleting their posts).
Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg says, “In the coming weeks, we will add privacy controls that are much simpler to use.”
But what can you do now to ensure your Facebook settings are as secure as possible?
Untangle, the company behind Untangle for Windows which we’ve covered here, has answered the need to simplify Facebook’s privacy settings with SaveFace, a Bookmark utility which sets all of your Facebook account’s privacy settings (except “Add me as a Friend”) to “Friends Only.”
To use it, go to the SaveFace page, drag the “SaveFace by Untangle” bookmark to your bookmark toolbar, log into Facebook, then click on the SaveFace bookmark. In seconds you should see the window below:
After you run SaveFace, you should verify that your privacy settings are correct. While logged into Facebook, go here to check your settings.
Any questions? The 2-minute video below explains how SaveFace works:
