It's important to note that once you post something on Facebook, or any other social network, it's no longer private, period.
While Facebook makes it fairly easy to control with whom you share information, the best way to keep your information private is to not post it anywhere in the first place.

Spotify announced on Wednesday that it is expanding its free streaming option to all devices.
Spotify Free for tablets will also work in conjunction with Spotify Connect, the company's Chromecast-like integration for home stereo systems. Previously, non-paying Spotify users could only listen to Spotify Radio selections on mobile. Like Pandora, iTunes Radio andiHeartRadio, Spotify Radio allows users to listen to "stations" comprised of artists and genres, but not specific music tracks.
The new option will allow users to listen to tracks they select, just as they can on the desktop.
In addition to Spotify Free for tablets, the company is also rolling out a free streaming option for all devices, including mobile phones. This option, dubbed "Spotify Shuffle," the option will allow users to "shuffle play" all playlists in their libraries and shuffle listen to any artist they choose.

Make sure your privacy settings are on lock-down. The best way to test that they are is to use Facebook’s “View As” feature to see what a stranger can see when they look at your profile. |
