Senators to Facebook: Quit sharing users' info

Three Democratic senators today asked the Federal Trade Commission to take a look at Facebook's controversial new information sharing policies, arguing that the massively popular social network overstepped its bounds when it began sharing user data with other websites.

"We've asked the FTC to promulgate some rules," said Sen. Chuck Schumer. The New York Democrat said the lines between public and private are blurring as cyberspace develops, but he said of Facebook's new information sharing policy: "You know a violation when you see one and this is one of those."

Information on private matters, such as sexual orientation, intended by Facebook users to be shared only among friends, might now find a wider audience, said Sens. Al Franken, D-Minn., and Michael Bennet, D-Colo., at a Capitol Hill press conference with Schumer. Franken said Facebook has changed its privacy rules "in midstream."

The tools Facebook is providing users to opt out of the information sharing programs are needlessly complicated and hard to figure out, the senators contended. "I could go into how you opt out but we only have so much time," Franken said.

Facebook should change the rules so users have to proactively opt into the information sharing program, the senators said.

Schumer said he learned about the new rules from his daughter, who is in law school. The senator said he's noticed no difference on his own Facebook page, which, he assured reporters, "is very boring."

"I can attest to that," deadpanned Franken, who made his living as a comedian before entering the Senate. For purposes of comparison, you can check out Franken's Facebook page here.
