Yeah, facebook actually has more privacy settings than you can shake a stick at, once you start poking around. Do turn off all ths stuff for applications -- there's a big hole even if you use minimal apps like me.
Facebook's wierd for me b/c it's the only place online where I am not anonymous, and I do deliberately have it up so that ppl can look me up who knew me long ago, etc. But it creates a disconnect, where everywhere *else* I am on the internet, I'm anonymous, except of fb. It's *weird*.
If you don't like the clutter from app updates, you can also get fbpurity which cleans them out. OTOH if you don't log in very often, probably not too much of an issue.
