Sharing online, as social media enthusiasts are learning, can have all sorts of unintended consequences offline.
Now Facebook is helping you get a better grip on what you share. On Tuesday the company revealed changes to its privacy settings that are designed to more clearly show who knows what about your life on the Internet. The changes will take effect Thursday.
What is now called "everyone" in those settings will instead be called "public. " Facebook executives say they want to eliminate any doubts about what the setting means. If you click " public," that means anyone who is online can see it, including perfect strangers—or, worse, parents, prospective employers and your ex-wife’s divorce lawyers.
Similar settings will now appear next to other material you have posted, like your work history or photo albums, so you will no longer need to click to pages full of privacy options to change them.
No doubt the company also wants to diminish the possibility of legislation, investigation from complicated or confusing privacy settings. And with mounting competition from other social networking sites, namely Google, which emphasizes more compartmentalized (区分的) communications to different sets of friends and acquaintances, Facebook is also keen to keep its customers’ trust.
"Your profile should feel like your home on the Web," the company said in a blog post. "You should never feel like stuff appears there that you don’t want, and you shouldn’t ever wonder who can see anything that shows up there. "
That includes labeled pictures. The site will now let you approve every picture in which you are labeled before it appears on your profile page. No longer will a plain or compromising photograph of you show up there without your consent, though the publisher of the photograph can still post it on his or her own page.
The changes point to some of the company’s growing pains, in which mass appeal can sometimes be a bit of a liability. Facebook is used today by 750 million people all over the world, with varying degrees of knowledge about what it means to have a life online. Company officials say they hope the latest changes will remove the mystery of privacy settings and ensure that Facebook users are never " surprised" by what others can see about them. [br] The changes made by Facebook to its privacy settings are aimed to______.
选项
A、make you know more about your life
B、let others better understand your life
C、help you know more about others’ life
D、tell you what others know about your life
答案
D
解析
事实细节题。题干中的are aimed to是原文are designed to的同义转述,均意为“旨在……,¨的在于……”。根据原文“这些改变的目的是让用户更清楚他人对其互联网生活了解多少”,即能告诉用户别人对你互联网生活的了解,D)含义与之吻合,故为答案。A)“让你更了解你自己的生活”;B)“让他人更理解你的生活”;C)“让你更了解他人的生活”,均不符合题意,故排除。
