10 Tips to Protect Yourself on Facebook

Shakira Andrea Sison | Published: Jan 29, 2010 - 8:00am


5. Protect your "tags." It can be as minor as a photo of you on a bad hair/skin/outfit/mood day, or as major as a candid shot capturing you in all your drunken glory–either way, it's always a good idea to adjust settings for tagged photos of you. Go to Settings > Privacy (Manage) > Profile Information > Photos and Videos of Me, and choose from the drop-down menu. At the minimum, make sure it's not set to "Everyone" but just "Friends," or customize it according to the lists you've created in tip #2

6. Make yourself invisible.

Tired of getting friend invites from strangers? Change your "searchability" in Settings > Privacy Settings > Search. As an added security measure, uncheck the "Allow" box in Public Search Results.
