Facebook and your home address Part II

Ah, Facebook - always two steps forward into your private data, then one step back when the furore erupts. Last week the ability to flog your personal details to any 3rd party (see here), this week the one step back (ReadWriteWeb) reports Facebook's Douglas Purdy:

"Over the weekend, we got some useful feedback that we could make people more clearly aware of when they are granting access to this data. We agree, and we are making changes to help ensure you only share this information when you intend to do so. We'll be working to launch these updates as soon as possible, and will be temporarily disabling this feature until those changes are ready. We look forward to re-enabling this improved feature in the next few weeks."

Some Feedback - I'll say! anyway, lets wait and see where they try and draw the line next.
