So many users went and set up their "privacy settings," thinking that as long as they did, nothing would go wrong. In reality, though, the huge number of games and personality quizzes on Facebook can also cause your personal data to leak. Many users don't know this, so let's analyze it below. <h2>https://coder.tw/en/posts/privacy-public-personal-info-risks/Mon, 21 Mar 2011 01:15:36 +0000https://coder.tw/en/posts/privacy-public-personal-info-risks/<p><a href="https://pub-6c026d2742d14927bfa2d850c31eac91.r2.dev/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/2011-03-21_010320.jpg"><img class="size-large wp-image-4958 aligncenter" title="2011-03-21_010320" src="https://pub-6c026d2742d14927bfa2d850c31eac91.r2.dev/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/2011-03-21_010320-520x387.jpg" alt="" width="520" height="387" /></a></p> <p>Many people today advocate for privacy, saying you should share as little personal information online as possible, or none at all, because posting it online carries many dangers, the most common being harassment. But I think many people simply don&rsquo;t pay attention to privacy (at least, that&rsquo;s what I&rsquo;ve observed). Plenty of people generously make their phone numbers, addresses, and other details public, and some even dare to upload intimate photos online. Others are more aware and understand the dangers of making personal information public, so they don&rsquo;t openly post their data online. Instead, they set up some protections, such as passwords and Facebook privacy settings. Honestly, these measures barely work. The most fundamental and safest approach is simply not to put anything online at all.</p> <h2>
