Does facebook timeline affect current privacy settings?

Whelp, there's no question that EVERYONE will be getting the new upgrade, whether they like it or not. However, there are more than likely some things that you need to do if you want to protect your privacy. With the new timeline, viewers will be able to scroll through your Facebook posts by the YEAR! Meaning they can go back to 2009 and see everything you posted, all of your old pictures, crazy statuses your friends tagged you in, and all types of garbage that you'd rather leave buried. There are a few things you can do to eliminate the shovel that your friends or the business pryers will try to use. When you're upgraded, or if you do do early, it gives you the option of erasing all of the things you don't want shown. Hope I've helped!
