Comment on Facebook Changed Everyone's Email to Facebook.com; Here's How to Fix It

Comments

I can't imagine why they decided email addresses now needed two layers of privacy controls. First layer = who can see this, second layer = is it visible on timeline. If I didn't want it visible on the timeline, why wouldn't I just select "Only me" on the first option...? Am I trying to keep my email private from myself?

They also only made the change for email addresses -- not IM usernames, etc. If the two layers were to help with privacy somehow, why not apply it to everything?
