由于有许多可用选项, Facebook 隐私设置(Facebook Privacy Settings)不亚于一个迷宫。这些选项在不止一个地方可用(让您感到困惑)。例如,您可以通过帖子下方的下拉菜单、时间轴(Timeline)或使用Facebook隐私设置选项设置您的Facebook帖子仅对您的朋友可见。(Facebook)很难理解Facebook的意图,因为有些事情我们甚至都不知道。例如,如果您在任何图像中被标记,您的朋友也可以看到该图像。这篇文章试图帮助您进行最佳的Facebook隐私设置。
使用活动日志(Activity Log)检查您的Facebook帖子的隐私
在对您的帖子进行隐私设置更改之前,我们会查看您分享的所有内容以及所有人都可以看到的内容。了解Facebook 对您的了解! Facebook 的活动日志是查看您在Facebook 上(Facebook)所做的所有事情的最佳位置。它还提供了更改、删除或改变事物的机会,以便人们只能看到您向他们展示的内容。
您可以通过以下方式访问Facebook活动日志:
- 您的 Facebook 个人资料页面
- Facebook 设置页面
- 在您单击右上角的倒三角形时出现的下拉菜单中
- Facebook 上的某些其他位置
活动日志是相同的日志文件,无论您从何处访问它。日志显示您在Facebook 上(Facebook)所做的一切。您应该花一些时间查看您发布的帖子(包括评论)及其隐私设置。
活动日志(Log)还允许您查看许多其他内容,以便您可以从Facebook 时间线(Facebook Timeline)中删除或隐藏帖子/图像/视频。您可以使用过滤器来简化操作。
在活动日志(Activity Log)下方,有许多过滤器可用于过滤帖子、评论、喜欢、反应和类似内容。您还可以查看所有帖子标记您的内容。如果您对您被标记的帖子不感兴趣,您可以删除该标记。如果需要,您可以删除标签,这样您的朋友和朋友的朋友就不会看到您时间轴上的帖子。
查看活动日志的唯一问题是您必须手动删除不需要的东西,如果您使用Facebook则一一删除。有一个Google Chrome 扩展程序可以批量删除 Facebook 帖子(Google Chrome extension to bulk delete Facebook posts)以加快处理速度。

最佳 Facebook 隐私设置
Facebook中的此选项允许您为将来的帖子配置和设置您的隐私。它位于Facebook 设置(Facebook Settings)下。要打开它,请单击Facebook(Facebook)窗口右上角的倒三角形图标。在出现的下拉菜单中,单击设置。
在Facebook设置窗口中,单击左侧窗格中的隐私(Privacy)。右侧窗格将提供Facebook 隐私(Facebook Privacy)选项。
第一个选项是关于Your Activity。它允许您为所有未来的帖子选择目标受众。单击(Click)编辑(Edit)并选择受众。默认情况下,它设置为Public,但您可以通过单击按钮来更改它。
要在Facebook 上(Facebook)获得更好的隐私,请单击按钮并选择自定义(Custom)。在出现的对话框中,在第一个文本框中键入Friends 。取消勾选“已标记的朋友(Friends of tagged)”复选框。这样,您将禁止Facebook算法向您的 FB 朋友的(Facebook)Facebook (FB) 朋友显示您的帖子。
自定义隐私(Custom Privacy)对话框还包含限制某些人查看您的帖子的选项。在“不要分享(Don’t Share With)”旁边的文本框中,填写您不想与之分享帖子的朋友的姓名。只需(Just)开始输入您朋友的姓名,所有相关姓名都会出现在下拉菜单中。完成选择要隐藏帖子的人员后,单击“保存更改(Save Changes)”。对话框关闭,您返回到“隐私设置和工具(Privacy Settings and Tools)”页面。
请(Please)注意,如果您在任何隐私设置为自定义的帖子中标记受限朋友,被标记的朋友仍然可以看到它。另一个选项是我们上面讨论的活动日志(Activity Log)。您可以看到您的所有信息都被共享。要更改Activity Log,请参阅上面的部分。
隐私设置和工具(Privacy Settings and Tools)下还有另一个选项。您可以使用它来限制您的旧帖子仅对您的朋友可见。请注意,在这种情况下,帖子中被标记的人也可以看到该帖子,即使他们不是您的朋友。

Facebook隐私的时间线和标记选项(Tagging)
在窗口的左窗格中,单击时间轴(Timeline)和标记(Tagging)以查看并指定谁都可以查看您的帖子。有诸如“谁可以看到其他人在您的时间线上发布的内容”之类的选项。您可以使用此选项更改受众。我会选择自定义(Custom)并将好友(Friends)设置为确保没有其他人看到它的选项。
下一个要考虑的选项是“评论(Review)”。这里的选项是:
- 查看您被标记的帖子。如果您将其设置为ON(ON),则此帖子将在您的 FB 时间线上可见。我会打开该(ON)选项,以便我知道谁在Facebook 上标记了我(Facebook)
- 查看(Review)人们添加到您帖子中的标签。此选项是通过允许您删除标签来限制帖子的可见性。通常情况下,当您发布好东西时,您的朋友会在评论框中标记他们的朋友,以便他们可以与他们分享。将选项保持为ON
然后单击左窗格中的故事(Stories)以查看两个选项
- 允许人们用他们自己的故事分享您的公开帖子。您可能希望也可能不希望人们分享您的帖子。您可以允许(allow)或不允许(don’t allow)这种行为”
- 如果您提及它们或标记它们,则允许人们分享您的故事。选择允许(Allow)将使帖子出现在Facebook的不同位置。我推荐“不允许(Don’t Allow)”。
如果您愿意,请记得选择退出Facebook 广告跟踪。(Facebook Ad Tracking)

Best Facebook Privacy Settings to stay safe, secure and private
Facebook Privacy Settings are no less than a maze because of the many options available. These options are available at more than one place (to confuse you). For example, you can set your Facebook post’s visibility to your Friends only, from the drop-down menu below the post, from the Timeline, or by using the Facebook privacy settings option. It is hard to understand Facebook’s intentions because there are things we don’t even know. For example, if you are tagged in any image, your friends can also see the image. This post attempts to assist you with the best Facebook privacy settings.
Using Activity Log to check your Facebook posts’ privacy
Before making privacy setting changes to your posts, we’ll see what all you shared and who all can see it. Find out what Facebook knows about you! Facebook’s Activity Log is the best place to see all of what you did on Facebook. It also offers the opportunity to change, delete, or unlike things so that people can see only what you show them.
You can access the Facebook activity log from:
- Your Facebook profile page
- Facebook Settings page
- In the drop-down menu that appears when you click that inverted triangle towards top-right and
- Certain other locations on Facebook
The activity log is the same logfile irrespective of from where you access it. The log shows everything you did on Facebook. You should spend some time reviewing what posts (including comments) you have been posting and their privacy settings.
Activity Log allows you to review many other things as well so that you can remove or hide posts/images/videos from your Facebook Timeline. You can use filters to make it easy.
Just below Activity Log, there are many filters that you can use to filter posts, comments, likes, reactions, and similar stuff. You can also see what all posts tag you. You may remove the tag if you are not interested in the post where you are tagged. If you want, you may remove the tags so that your friends and friends of friends do not get to see the post on your Timeline.
The only problem with reviewing activity log is that you have to remove unwanted things manually, one by one if you are doing it using Facebook. There is a Google Chrome extension to bulk delete Facebook posts to speed up things.

Best Facebook Privacy Settings
This option in Facebook allows you to configure and set up your privacy for future posts. It is available under Facebook Settings. To open it, click on the inverted triangle icon on the top-right corner of the Facebook window. In the dropdown menu that appears, click on Settings.
In the Facebook settings window, click on Privacy in the left pane. The right pane will come up with options for Facebook Privacy.
The first option is about Your Activity. It allows you to choose the target audience for all your future posts. Click on Edit and select the audience. By default, it is set to Public, but you can change it by clicking on the button.
To secure better privacy on Facebook, click on the button and select Custom. In the dialog box that appears, type Friends in the first text box. Remove the tick from the checkbox that says, “Friends of tagged“. This way, you will disable Facebook algorithms from displaying your post to Facebook (FB) friends of your FB friends.
The Custom Privacy dialog box also contains an option to restrict certain people from viewing your post. In the text box next to “Don’t Share With“, fill in the names of your friends with whom you don’t wish to share the post. Just start typing the name of your friend and all related names will appear in a dropdown menu. After you are done selecting people from whom you wish to hide your post, click “Save Changes“. The dialog box closes, and you are back to the page saying Privacy Settings and Tools.
Please note that if you tag a restricted friend in any post whose privacy is set to custom, the tagged friend can still see it. The other option is the Activity Log that we discussed above. You can see what all information of yours is being shared. To make changes to Activity Log, see the above section.
There is another option under Privacy Settings and Tools. You can use it to limit the visibility of your old posts to just your friends. Note that in this case too, the post will be visible to people who are tagged in the post, even if they are not your friends.

Timeline and Tagging options for privacy on Facebook
In the left pane of the window, click on Timeline and Tagging to see and dictate who all can view your posts. There are options such as “Who can see what others post on your timeline”. You can change the audience using this option. I’d select Custom and set Friends as the option to make sure no one else sees it.
The next option to consider is “Review“. The options here are:
- Review posts where you are tagged. This post will be visible on your FB timeline if you set it to ON. I would turn ON the option so that I know who all are tagging me across Facebook
- Review tags people add to your posts. This option is to limit the visibility of posts by allowing you to remove the tag. Often it happens that when you post something good, your friends tag their friends in the comment boxes so that they can share it with them. Keep the option to ON
Then click on Stories in the left pane to see two options
- Allow people to share your public posts with their own stories. You may or may not want people to share your posts. You can allow or don’t allow this behavior”
- Allow people to share your stories if you mention them or tag them. Selecting Allow would make the post appear at different places on Facebook. I recommend “Don’t Allow“.
Do also remember to opt out of Facebook Ad Tracking if you wish to.
The above explains the best Facebook privacy settings I could research on the social networking site. If you think I missed anything, please comment.
