Facebook Will Take New Privacy Features to Congress on Thursday

On top of launching what it calls “simplified” privacy features tomorrow, Facebook is planning to take the changes on the road to Washington, DC, where a number of Congresspeople have recently criticized its recent privacy changes.

A Facebook event page says that the company will host a meeting called “Facebook’s New Privacy Controls Hill Briefing,” that is “open to House and Senate staff only” on Thursday at 4:00pm EDT. The blurb from the post:

In Monday’s Washington Post, Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg told readers that Facebook has listened to feedback from users, legislators, and consumer groups and will be launching a new suite of simpler and easier-to-use privacy tools.
