Response to Kerri Hinkle's Post

Do you think these new groups are an invasion of privacy or beneficial to Facebook users?
Why or why not?


I believe that it is not an invasion of privacy because anything you put on the internet is basically out there for the world to see. Facebook is, for the most part, a public social media site. It will be beneficial for companies to better understand their customers and be beneficial to the customer, however, it may also be negative in that it may lead to the customer to feel pestered or molested by the company that is trying to market their product to them. Overall though, it is up to the Facebook user to decide what they would like everyone to know about them and as soon as they post, like, or join a group they are telling everyone what they think about it. As long as all the company is doing is reading or analyzing what the user posted then they are not invading their privacy.
