Everyone can see what I've commented on or Liked. Corey likes a pic, Corey commented on this. My ex's niece just randomly came into a conversation I was having on a page. I know she saw it from the News Feed also.... My other friend did it too. It's like a stalker paradise.  I HATE it! Everyone can see what I’ve commented on or Liked.

I don't care what My Friend said to Someone I've Never Met, and don't want it cluttering up my feed. I don't really care if I see what My Friend A says to My Friend B, since we're all connected, but once you have a certain number of friends, getting all they crap they do on the pages of outside people is really annoying.

That might seem like a picky complaint, but if neither Bob nor I thought this thing had anything to do with Fred, why should he be sent a notification about it? The fact is, Facebook is programmed to send any comments I make on other people's posts to all my friends, and it seems like there should be a way to turn that off. Or more basically, if viewers can turn off their subscription to my comments and likes, why can't I do the same?
