If you recently posted a "privacy notice" on Facebook claiming the government cannot disseminate your content, you've been fooled.

Contrary to what the notice says, Facebook's privacy policy was not affected when the company went public on May 18, according to the myth-buster extraordinaires at Snopes. Facebook and its users are still bound by the terms of service that every user signed in order to gain access to the site. The only way to change your privacy settings is to adjust them yourself in the account settings on Facebook and practice caution when you post to the Web.
