figure out for themselves
What this thing's worth.
So I look at what facebook
has as an asset,
Which is 900 million people and
a ton of data on those people,
And I say if they use 10%
of that data,
They're going to be the most
valuable company ever.
[narrator] when personal data
is worth this much,
Why would google, or any free
internet service,
Be opposed to the data retention
that the patriot act required?
Anonymity wasn't profitable.
People who are willing
to give up information
to something that's free,
Or something that's fun,
or a free taco.
I don't think
that ever changes.
You always want
something free.
And plenty of people
are willing to provide
information to get that.
[narrator] and plenty
on this fact.
Let me give you some
very practical tips.
First of all, I want everybody
here to be careful
About what you post
on facebook.
What the default settings
are on facebook,
This is how most people
use this technology.
building these systems,
they know that.
[audience member] so why is it
the default for everything
sharing,
Every photo,
when I start facebook?
Why isn't it
just for my friends?
Why is the default
for everybody?
Because it's really confusing
for my mom to figure out
How to just share
to her friends.
The way we've designed
the site is that,
It's a community thing,
right?
So people want to share
with just their friends,
But a lot of people
also want to share with
Right. Right.
I want to share with everyone
who works with me at facebook.
I want to share with everyone
who went to my college,
Everyone in the village
around me.
just my friends.
[narrator] even mark's
explanation doesn't make
any sense.
He says he wants to share
with the school,
With the quaint village
next to him.
He doesn't say he wants
to share with the entire world.
And yet, that's the default.
The challenge with defaults
Is that you get comfortable
When the default is public,
beautifully and deal with it.
When the default is private,
You can adapt comfortably
and deal with it.
When the defaults change,
that's when problems emerge.
[narrator] and in fact,
that's what facebook did.
In 2009, facebook made changes
Without telling anyone.
Doing a privacy change
Is not the type of thing
that a lot of companies
would do.
And we just went for it.
[narrator] you might
