Facebook - Poor Handling of Personal Data?

Facebook - Poor Handling of Personal Data?
I am seriously considering suspending my account on Facebook.

This is because:
1. I have discovered the privacy settings here have confusingly increased and been varied without my consent. In particular, the privacy settings I had earlier have been defaulted to 'everyone' without formally telling me the controls had changed. Looking at the privacy link today, it is quite simply staggering the changes that have been made.

2. I now do not clearly know - due to the unecessary complexity of the settings - how to control who precisely has access to the personal information I have held here, and whilst Facebook are perfectly entitled to vary terms and conditions as they wish, Mr. Mark Zuckerburg is responsible for a castrophically poor quality product that has shockingly poor clarity about data protection, and lacks clear and simple rules about data access, privacy, and regulation.

Does anyone know any internal information about what facebook are going to do about it?

Well first of all, you can't seriously expect a site such as facebook or myspace to really care about your privacy, they are probably run by some 16 year old kid in his basement. I've never been on either site so I really don't know anything about them but I do know they are very popular hangouts for pedophiles....LOL
