The second half of last week started off with a huge tussle between internet giants Facebook and Google. Reports flowed about how Facebook had hired PR firm Burson-Marsteller to run a "smear campaign" against Google. Facebook had asked Burson-Marstellar to pitch the story that Google's social-networking plan called Social Circle was violating user privacy. But it backfired for Facebook, even as the company tried to regain lost image by denying that it was a campaign to malign the image of Google.

Nobody evades privacy. We ourselves invite others including social sites to interfere with our personal domain. In fact, nothing is private as such. What you need is to share your privacy with selected few and not others. But these selected few divulge your 'secrets'. That is what the social sites do. The social sites can infringe only that much of privacy as you voluntarily disclose. If some one writes in a site that he loves pornography, this will be known to all and various sites will begin sending emails.

Yes I agree to the fact that to an extent we ourselves are responsive for disclosing our privacy and if we don't disclose our privacy our privacy will never get disclosed. As a matter of fact we need to be in our limits when we share something about us on a particular site rather than getting the nightmare of getting our privacy disclosed...
