Let me help you sleep better at night. Your entire (2 minute) thesis is based on a supremely flawed premise. When 580,000,000+ users render information to Facebook (and their only real customers aka advertisers) it ceases to be private. When you check-in, it ain’t private. When you “like” and “poke” and “friend” and whine that Suzy wouldn’t kiss you after the dance, it ain’t private.

The intention of your article is clear, but your logic is deeply flawed.
Response to a few things

1) "accountability to its customers"
We are not facebook's customers.
We are its product, which they sell to their real customers, the advertisers and data buyers.

2) "the point of a public company - accountability, transparency, and thorough reporting"
The obligations of this sort of a public company is mainly about fiscal accountability to its shareholders. It has nothing to do with any ethical obligations in handling our private data.

The beauty of these blogging engines and CMS platforms is the lack of limitations and ease of manipulation that allows developers to implement rich content and ‘skin’ the site in such a way that with very little effort one would never notice what it is making the site tick all without limiting content and effectiveness

I also agree facebook has to much of our information to be so private i mean who knows what they can use against someone or company for that matter if they really wanted to
