The social network Facebook is working on several changes to its interface, to optimize the features made available to users to protect their privacy.
Facebook has long moved his followers to set the display of their publications according to groups or categories of friends defined. This possibility will soon know a few changes, not in substance but in form. At a meeting held with journalists in California, the social network has unveiled a few changes to come.
Currently, setting the visibility of a publication is through a comprehensive drop-down menu that displays several options frozen, highlighting public display for friends and only for User himself. Access to custom lists is another menu. Future, this tool will be simplified to show only two choices, one of the most used by users.
The user will still be able to access a more comprehensive list of possibilities, but the approach of Facebook is to facilitate this process by keeping the face of the usual choice.
Finally, Facebook has also set up a pop-up, a sort of balance sheet and reminder to the user who has not changed its privacy settings for a long time. The social network hopes to raise awareness its adherents to these questions, sometimes difficult and complex, guiding them through the different choices. For the platform, it is also a way to make amends after being criticized numerous times on the complexity of its privacy settings.
