Oops. Mark Zuckerberg's Sister Has A Private Facebook Photo Go Public

http://j.mp/W21RyM  (Forbes)

   "Being a member of the Facebook founder's family won't protect you from
    having your privacy breached on the social network. On Tuesday night,
    Randi Zuckerberg - older sister to Facebook's CEO - posted a photo
    from a family gathering to Facebook (of course), showing her sisters
    using Facebook's new Snapchat-esque 'Poke' app on their phones, with
    Mark Zuckerberg watching with a confused look on his face. It popped
    up on the Facebook newsfeed of mediaite Callie Schweitzer who
    subscribes to Zuckerberg. Assuming the photo was a public one,
    Schweitzer tweeted it to her nearly 40,000 Twitter followers.
    Zuckerberg was not pleased."

Sure, blame anything *except* Facebook's utterly confused and constantly
degrading "privacy" systems.
