How do I stop people in general tagging me in a photo on Facebook?

[Alex]

The only option I can find is where I can "review posts" but what I want is an option I can select where someone actually CANNOT tag my name IN GENERAL. Where is it??!!!

Hiya, I hate this too but I followed this guide now if they tag you it basically hides the tag as though they never have.. https://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_i...5768080392

The option suggested by Mark only seems to prevent photos/videos you are tagged in from being able to be viewed by people on your profile. It still can be viewed by the person who uploaded the photos and whoever their privacy settings allow to see it, I believe. Your best bet would be to tell people you don't want to be tagged, as there is currently no option to prevent people from tagging you.

Unfortunately, you can't prevent someone from tagging you in general, but there are measures that can be taken to allow you to either review posts that you've been tagged in BEFORE the tagged post appears on your wall, OR (if you don't want to go through the hassle of reviewing posts others have tagged you in), you can even dictate exactly who is able to see the posts you are tagged in (amongst your facebook friends list, that is).

To do either of those things:
1. log in to Facebook
2. in the right hand corner of the page, click the icon that looks like a padlock (to the right of your name)
3. click "See More Settings" at the bottom of the list
4. in the toolbar list to the far right of the page, click "Timeline and Tagging"

On the resulting page, many options are available to you to help maintain your privacy regarding what appears on your timeline and posts you may be tagged in, including who of your friends can see them.

Set the privilege on your tag setting so that only those person participate in this that permitted.
