Facebook yesterday commenced rolling out its “privacy checkup” aimed at helping users of the billion member + social network better manage sharing their information and postings.
The new system uses a blue dinosaur to guide Facebook users through its maze of privacy settings for personal information and for sharing their posts.
“We know you come to Facebook to connect with friends, not with us,” Facebook´s Paddy Underwood said in a blog post.
“But we also know how important it is to be in control of what you share and who you share with.”
The dinosaur will pop up when users log on to Facebook, and take them through each step of the privacy settings, from their personal information to the apps that may access Facebook data.
A privacy shortcut will also be on each Facebook page to allow users to update their privacy settings.
