If you keep your own privacy settings under control, and you aren’t clicking on weird Apps in Facebook (like “see what people are saying about you online” messages) then you will be just fine. You have control over where your posts are seen! Just watch the privacy setting on the post you are going to post on. If you wanted your friend’s comments and Likes to not show up in your Ticker (maybe the Like too much or are an over-commenter) you can uncheck that activity as the message suggests like this:īut doing this for others has no affect on hackers. App Activity (games, Listening, Read – as shown in the screenshot below).Likes and comments – again you are only going to see these Likes and Comments on the posts that have a public status or the correct permissions.(See the screenshot below showing that more Page updates are only showing up in the Ticker) Status updates from friends and from pages you have liked.It will only show up in the Ticker of my friends who are also friends of Benjamin’s because that is who he allowed the post to be shared with. If I comment on this post, it will not go into the Ticker of all my friends. If she only shared it with him or his friends, then I would not have seen this activity in the Ticker. But in this example, Kathy shared something on Ricky’s wall and even though I’m not friends with Ricky, Kathy shared it with his friends of friends. If you Like or Comment on a post that was shared with only that person’s friends, and I am not a friend of that person, then I will not see that information in my Ticker. If you Like or Comment on a public post, then that information will be shared in the Ticker publicly. What matters is the original status of the post that you are commenting on and Liking. So here’s the skinny on the Ticker and what people can see and what they can’t. Watch my video where I talk about the problems with this message: If you repost this I will do the same for you.” But most important, it limits hackers from invading our profiles. That will stop all our posts showing up on the side bar for strangers to see. Hover over that, then go to “Comments and Likes” and unclick it. In a few seconds you’ll see a box that says “Subscribed”. With the new FB TIMELINE on its way this week for EVERYONE. So if you all would do the following, I’d appreciate it. As you all know, I like to keep my FB private except to those I am friends with. You may have seen this message: “Hey everybody. What is in the Ticker, how do you control your privacy in the Ticker, and what is up with that message going around about hackers getting into the Ticker? It’s a bunch of crap.
I’m getting a little ticked off about the misconceptions going around about the Facebook Ticker. Facebook is phasing out the Ticker with the release of the new News Feed and not sure if the disappearance of the Ticker is permanent or temporary!
#DID FACEBOOK REMOVE THE TICKER UPDATE#
Update 8/22/13 Looks like the Ticker is missing.
