Facebook prides itself on allowing you to share all kinds of information with your friends and family, and by default there many privacy features that are turned off that you might want to turn on once you realize what is at stake. One of the biggest privacy features that I had to change right away is allowing my “friends” to check me in with “People here now”. It seems absolutely crazy to allow other people to be able to check you in different places, especially considering that someone might check you into a place when you are somewhere else. Allowing people to know where you are might seem like a fun way to connect with other people, but when you don’t have total control over this feature things can get messy. Who knows why Facebook has this on by default.
