Comment Privacy Settings on Facebook?
So I had a party and took pictures last night with my friends. I tagged all my friends in the album but still THEIR friends can comment on them and that makes me feel uncomfortable. It makes me wonder what my family can comment or see in photos that MY friends tag ME in. Is there a way I can change this??? Thank you

no, there is no way to change it, unless you add each person you want to hide things from to your restricted list as explained here

It is a combination of settings actually. Too, there is NO real privacy to facebook anyway. The photos as an example are not even on facebook but another web site. You can prove this to yourself by: open your picture album on facebook (or any ones), right click on any photo and click "view image" (works best on firefox to prove this), once the image opens in its own window -- just take a look at the URL up there in the address bar -- it is not even on facebook! You can copy/paste that URL and view it even if you are not logged into facebook. This proves the security settings in fb only applies to how and where you log in but otherwise do not mean a thing.

You will need to change your fb browsing settings to "secure only" (httpS), change all privacy settings so it is set to "me only" or "friends only" and otherwise lock down your profile to the maximum.

This is a start but it totally does not actually protect you. I no longer share anything on facebook for those and many other personal reason. Best wishes on protecting your personal information -- you will also need to review those settings every time facebook makes a new change (which is quite often).
