Facebook Privacy Issue

I have also heard about this issue of Facebook and it's privacy . We all know that most facebook-ers are stalkers , it just depend whether they are psychotic stalkers or a normal human being that just love to stalk on people and friends .

In either way , it's dangerous if our Facebook account privacy settings aren't set correctly . There could always be a crazy , insane (mostly jobless) person that will try to steal our identity or do something unattractive towards our identity .

Facebook have provided us with privacy settings and all , we can hide our about our information if we didn't like exposing it, we also can hide our pictures from public . But all of this did not mean that we can stop any identity theft from happening . Since our profile pic , eventhough it's in small size , it can be saved by anybody that have decided to visit our profile , and our names obviously are set to be seen by public, if not what's the reason you have an fb acc if you want to hide everything ?the FB team clearly give us rights on what to share what to not share , it's really up to us  but , I sometimes also afraid if somebody make a different acc by using our picture and name, this case have already  happened to my cousin since the myspace era . But luckily he can detect the person , and did not make a big deal out of it , since it harmless . But I still think it's dangerous because what if that theft identity( even by just using a picture of us and our name ) ,use our identity to post unnecessary and  inappropriate comments on something that we didn't even care about but could cause us being spread in the tabloids .
