Right. I agree parts of this can be put on the &quot;costs&quot; side of Facebook use.<p>But this aspect isn&#x27;t basically the issue of <i>publishing</i>? If you post your Facebook status&#x2F;photos and mark them publicly visible, you&#x27;re a publisher. Other people can see it. If, however, you limit it to your friends only, then if your non-friend boss sees them it means someone screwed up - which doesn&#x27;t seem any different than someone gossiping about you in real life.<p>Anyway, this aspect is something where I think we need to grow up as a society. Your boss probably did (or still does) the same stupid shit that you do, so him making an issue out of that drunk photo of yours is utterly hypocritical. Looking at some things posted by people with status I&#x27;m beginning to believe that Facebook is actually helping here - people are getting used to the concept that they&#x27;re no different than anyone else wrt. weirdness, and that they can be judged by others just like they themselves judge other people. In the face of this, I hope everyone will finally agree to chill out and stop judging one another entirely :).
