The Facebook Privacy Setting That Tripped Up Randi Zuckerberg


So how did the older sister of Facebook‘s CEO wind up oversharing a family photo on Christmas? Randi Zuckerberg found it “way uncool” that one of her subscribers on Facebook saw and tweeted a family photo that she had shared. “Not sure where you got that photo,” tweeted Zuckerberg. “I posted it to friends only on FB.”

The subscriber, Vox Media marketing director Callie Schweitzer, thought the photo was a public one when she spotted it in her newsfeed. In fact, she saw it because she was friends with a person tagged in the photo, one of the Zuckerberg sisters. She was able to see the photo because of a privacy setting that you may or may not realize exists. When you post a photo, you have a range of options as to who gets to see it, from the generic ones - Public, Friends, Fill-In-Your-Schoo-Here, Fill-In-Your-Work-Here - to any lists you may have created - Creepers, Ex-Boyfriends, People I barely remember, Family, People I secretly hate, etc. You may choose “Friends,” as Randi Zuckerberg did, and think your photos can then only be seen by your friends... but you’d be wrong.
