Chapter 1 Pre-Flight Checklist:What to Do Before YouGet Your Windows Phone
Limited: 3 This is the default setting and the least restrictive option I think
you should consider. Congured this way, only your friends—those people
you’ve explicitly “friended” on Windows Live—can see what you’re doing via
the service. But as with the Public setting, anyone can nd you by searching
on Windows Live and can view your prole. This is the setting to choose if you
are concerned about privacy but do want others to be able to nd you online.
Private:3 With this most restrictive setting—and, for whatever it’s worth, the
one I use—only your friends can view what you’re doing online, and only your
friends can search for you or view your prole. This is the option you’ll want to
pick if you’re concerned about privacy and don’t want other people to nd you.
Once you’ve chosen a setting, click Save.
WARNING If you are at all concerned about your privacy online—and you
should be—this isn’t enough. Please be sure to visit the Windows Live advanced
privacy page (
profile.live.com/Privacy) and then click the Advanced link to
see a comprehensive form for really ne-tuning your privacy settings, as shown
in Figure 1-7.
FIgure 1-7: Spend the time to get your privacy settings exactly right. You can’t be
too careful online.
