I don't like new Facebook Timeline. Can I switch back to the old Facebook settings?

[The Blaze]

With the new Timeline, my privacy is compromised. Albums set on "friends only" can be opened by the public in Timeline. Is there a way to switch back to non-timeline FB?

there is no way to get rid of it - everyone is being converted to the timeline - it's the new look for facebook

if you are using "view as" to see what the public sees, you are neglecting to click the PUBLIC link at the top first, so it appears as tho everyone can see them, when in fact, they cant

No, there's no way to do that. Although for the moment Facebook did not make a clear statement in any of its official pages about how the upgrade would be deployed, and as a consequence there is a lot of false information going around, experienced users know that Facebook upgrades of this size have never been optional.

Besides, there are clear evidences that indicate that there will be no way to go back to the old Profile. Take a look at the article in the source to see what those evidences are.
