facebook is SO SAFE.
first of alll, only ur friends can see u.
nobody can view you
its so private
there is no browse
and myspace looks disgustingly dangerous next to facebook.

Answer by Mateja A
well u can make it safe so that only friends can see your profile. its safe. just set the privacy settings and u wont have a problem.

I feel that facebook is safe…. however this is probably because I got facebook when it was too and only college students could join (you needed a student email).

However, facebook and myspace are both safe if you are careful about them. Don’t put up personal information and don’t try to meet strangers over them and you should be fine.

Also… facebook does not have the same amount of spam that myspace has.

I’ve never had a MySpace, but I’ve heard quite a few stories that they are not very good at keeping people’s names and info on private display, even after the person has requested it to be. Facebook isn’t exactly any safer if you don’t go through the precautions to only allow certain people to see your profile, but I prefer Facebook anyway because it’s cleaner, although with all these new add-ons they seem to be making it’s starting to get more obnoxious.

But really, they can both be dangerous sites if you aren’t careful, but I think Facebook is just more organized.

Facebook is more safe than myspace because you have to be a member and you have to let people be your friend or you can not see their profile.

Facebook is so much better than myspace anyways!

Answer by D_Town96
i would give Facebook the thumbs up on this one.
it was better when it was just for college students and professionals, but its still decent.

Facebook is quite safe. You can alter your privacy settings so only your friends can see your profile, and if you don’t want some of your friends seeing everything, you can give them limited access to your profile.

wow. yeah. i definitely think facebook is safe. what makes a facebook safe is the privacy settings! you can allow certain people to see certain parts of your profile. like people you don’t know that well can be placed on your “limited profile list” which means you choose what they can see, including personal info, contact info, certain applications, etc. myspace has none of that. it’s either all or nothing. not the case with face. go to www.facebook.com & view the tour. it explains the privacy settings. you know how on facebook, you have “comments” ? and “top 8” and all that jazz? you can allow certain people to see your wall, etc. so if you’re skeptical about someone you don’t know that well, just don’t allow them to see your entire profile. it’s the best feature. there are so many features that facebook has that myspace doesn’t. there are no pedophiles on facebook because no one can view your profile depending on your privacy settings. like, i have my privacy settings set to only my friends & NO one else. people can add me & message me, but they can’t see my actual profile. it’s not safe if you don’t bother editting your privacy settings, but that’s just about it.

yes. i think facebook is very safe…i just love facebook.
& theres no comparison when it comes to facebook and myspace. myspace is overly ridiculous at this time. i have both facebook & myspace.
i thought that the phishers, rp’s & survey bullitens were annoying enough but they keep adding new things that make it even more annoying.
simply, facebook is the best option.
