To not want fb to upload every single photo I've taken?

I know, I know. Fb is pretty awful and the Daily Fail even more so, but I really do not like the idea of pictures I've taken being uploaded onto fb.

I only really use it occasionally and don't want any photos of my DD on it. I just think the lack of privacy is getting more disturbing.

The main points are:
* Photo Sync being aggressively promoted to Facebook's mobile app users
* It will upload every single picture taken to the social network's servers
* Facebook will benefit from huge windfall of data it can commercialise
* It could use that data to build detailed database of users' lives

All a bit disturbing, me thinks its time to remove it from my phone.

You have to opt in. It's optional, so unless you agree to it your photos will not be uploaded.
