Temporarily Disable Facebook - The Facebook Places security options are set to "Buddies Only" by default, but you can decide out of the service completely.

 

Temporarily Disable Facebook

To do so follow these basic directions:

1. Go to your Facebook account's "Personal privacy Settings."
2. Click "Personalize settings" in the "Sharing on Facebook" section.
3. Under "Things I share" click the option box beside "Include me in 'People Here Now' after I sign in." You have now handicapped this feature.
The image below is exactly what your settings need to look like when you have completed these actions.

Another Places feature may enable pals to share your place-- even if you are not currently there as well as if you have currently disabled self-check-in. Friends using Places can examine you in or "tag" you at a specific place.

NOTE # - If you're checked-in on your own or by a pal, your presence at the area shows up to anyone that either you or your friend permits, based upon your friend's and your privacy settings.

Your name will show up on the area's Places page, if there is one, so everyone at the location can see that you exist. If you are tagged by a buddy, your existence at the area is seen by your good friends or whoever they permit to see their posts, based on their (not your) privacy settings.

You need to authorize a check-in request, but you are only offered 2 alternatives: "Yes" and "Not Now.".

Again, there is a simple way to disable this feature:.

1. Go to your Facebook account's "Personal privacy Settings.".
2. Click "Tailor settings" in the "Sharing on Facebook" section.
3. Under "Things others share," locate the choice "Buddies can examine me into Places.".
4. Select "Disable" from the list of alternatives. You have now handicapped this function.

The image below is exactly what your settings need to appear like as soon as you have actually finished these actions.
