However, the thing is, most users won't ever know that their information is being transmitted to other websites.

...sigh...

I hope all of my friends could have left Facebook in an instant after they heard the news, but it's just a Cloud Nine fantasy...

Without their permission, and the notice is extremely small at the corner.

Nah, Facebook just plain sucks now. No privacy to be heard of at all.
