Facebook Introducing New Privacy setting To Profile Photo With Guard

Facebook is the largest social network in the world, and therefore the largest number of people congregate every day on their servers. Every day, thousands, if not millions of people will create a new Facebook account, with a profile picture, data and phone and many more things.

Facebook is the company that has more information about us, and uses them as it likes. But if this does not worry you and what you want is more privacy in front of other users of the social network, today you are in luck. The new profile photo on Facebook is now safer and enhances the privacy of all users.

So far, with a simple search everyone could see your profile photo, even if this was not your friend. Also, everyone could tag you in your profile picture, even if you were not friends. We talked in the past because from now the thing changes, since Facebook has implemented much more security and privacy to the profile photo.

The profile photo on Facebook now with a shield

The visual change in the profile photo is minimal, since we only see a small shield at the bottom, which indicates more security for this photo. This shield, which for the moment is only available in India, tells us that no one who has not added can see our profile photo, or label us on his own.

In addition, no one will be able to download this photograph, or even share it in their profile, so we can rest assured that no one has our profile picture on their phone. This can not be done either from the computer, even from mobile, but the application for Android adds a function.

If they visit your profile from an Android phone, the application will block the use of the screenshots, so nobody can capture your profile photo. Undoubtedly, it is one of the best news for users who need more privacy in their profile photo. This function will be extended to our country soon, when it has just been tested in India.
