So we knew that Facebook was going to be opening Fan Pages up to Googles search engine what wasn't well known was that Facebook would also flip the switch on Profile pages as well.

The Facebook community has reacted with this status update currently being passed around:

If you don't know, as of today, Facebook will automatically index all your info on Google, which allows everyone to view it. To change this option, go to Settings --> Privacy Settings --> Search --> then UN-CLICK the box that says 'Allow indexing'. Facebook kept this one quiet. Copy and paste onto your status for all your friends ASAP

{jb_greenbox}Now it's not as bad as it first sounds, if you already use the Facebook privacy controls to restrict information to friends or friends of friends Google won't be able to see it. Now would be a good time to double check and if in doubt OPT OUT!{/jb_greenbox}
