“I am surprised that you could see so much from my Facebook, I have everything set to private. ”

“It’s actually creepy that I can find this information out so quickly via Facebook without even being your friend!”

“I wasn’t aware of how public all of my information was. This was a wakeup call for how easy it is to find something and I’m not sure if I like that. ”
