People can still find me in the search box on Facebook? - anonymous - 03-24-2014 11:09 AM

I've turned off my search engine, yet the minute you type my name (Facebook account) I'm the first on the list! How do I stop that? I don't wanna be found easily. -.-

You can't facebook changed it a couple of months ago you can no longer hide your name from searches.

You can't. Facebook no longer has that as an option. Fully deleting your account is no longer possible either. Facebook does not seem to be bothered about people's privacy anymore

Go to "Private Settings"

go the option says"Who can look me up?"at the 3rd one

choose " Do you want other search engines to link to your timeline?"

and go to the right side "edit" options,

then do whatever want to do.
