The once-extremely-popular site will simplify its own privacy settings over the coming weeks, giving users the "option to select one privacy setting for all information in their profiles, which often include a user's name, birthday, interests and photos."
Profiles can be made public to everyone, MySpace friends only, or MySpace users over 18 only.
Previously, the settings for different sections of their profile were scattered, including the separate controls for privacy on their photos, comments and friend's lists.
Taking a jab at Facebook's recent plights, MySpace Co-President Mike Jones says: "Given all the noise in the industry, we want to get out and state a clear position so that our users understand that we take privacy very seriously."
