[uf-discuss] microformats and privacy

[Charles Iliya Krempeaux]

Obviously.... doesn't publish any information to the web that you want private.

For example.... facebook asks you for your phone number... so it can
show it to others... but you don't have to give it that info!

Microformats will help "expose" the information you are willing to put
out there.  (If you want something private... then don't "give it
out".)
