The Internet masses have been troubled lately about Facebook, following a wave of dissent that began forming when Facebook launched a massive privacy overhaul about five months back, and continued to grow as messages found their way to the wrong people’s inboxes (among other privacy gaffes) and the Open Graph was introduced.

The core issue of how the social networking platform manages access to its users’ information has built a crisis of confidence with Facebook users. Since the changes to privacy controls, it can take hours to click through all the settings and options to achieve maximum privacy – and even then you will still need to set real-time controls with each wall post and status update. On Monday in The Washington Post, Mark Zuckerberg said upcoming tweaks will make it simpler to use privacy controls and provide an easy way to turn off all third-party services.

A few of the changes rumored that Zuckerberg is to announce that Facebook will be implementing in the upcoming weeks are:
1. A one-click control that changes content viewing permissions to friends-only, friends-of-friends, or everyone (This will apply to anything published in the past or anything published in the future).
2. A one-click control for determining how people can find you on Facebook, and what non-friend users can see on profile (including opting-out of sharing your friends list and the Pages that you like).
3. A simple way to opt-out of Facebook’s instant personalization features and providing information to third-party sites (New Open Graph Technology).
