Facebook Tries to Get Ahead of Privacy Concerns Over Home

App doesn't do anything the social net doesn't already, it says

Facebook is trying to get ahead of the privacy debate over Facebook Home, the social network's new skin that turns Android phones into Facebook phones.

In a Q&A released Friday evening, Facebook tried to reassure critics that any privacy concerns about Home are much ado about nothing. "Home doesn't change anything related to your privacy settings on Facebook, and your privacy controls will work the same with Home as they do everywhere else on Facebook," the company said.
