Selling Privacy Information

How far is too far and what are you willing to sacrifice for a few more social networking features? According to a new study most Facebook and MySpace users are willing to let companies sell their private information for access to new features.

The article is a little misleading in that it considers personal information your email address and pictures that you upload. Its not like they are sending your credit card information to the highest bidder or even your home address. Essentially social networking sites sell your data via advertisements on your profile page.

Sounds good to me, as long as I can keep tabs on my friends.
