Childnet advice on Graph Search

5 November 2013

Graph Search is Facebook’s newest feature to help people explore content on the site. You can type in searches to find lots of different things, such as “Photos I have liked”, “People in London who like Justin Bieber” or “Photos commented on by my friends”.

Childnet have prepared a guide about privacy for Graph Search with 3 top tips for users to check what appears about them in a Graph Search.

Tip 1: Check you are happy with everything posted about you – and who it is shared with

Tip 2: Check which of your photos are searchable by the public

Tip 3: Check the things you have hidden on your timeline
