Have you looked at your Facebook privacy settings lately? It seems as if Facebook changes its privacy terms and settings often and they leave it up to you to check and adjust accordingly. You must know that if you don’t want anyone to see it, then don’t take pictures of it or capture it and certainly DO NOT upload it to Facebook or any other site under the disguise its secure. Security is only as safe as the people who have access.
