The words "Facebook" and "privacy" cannot co-exist without a 
negative in the sentence. Join at your peril and with eyes wide open.

see eg this old issue 
<http://foryournoggin.com/facebook-to-sell-database-information-express-yourself/>

and Fake Steve on Facebook

I'm not saying don't do it, I'm saying, don't be surprised if 
they put together an astonishing amount of information on you. 
Join and enjoy it, or keep away and get cut off from an 
increasing number of family photos.

amazing that while people are worried about the government 
having your NI number and NHS record (etc) on a database, they 
happily give it all away pretty much to a US entrepreneur who 
specialises in, er, collecting data to sell to companies.
