[quote=Anonymous]OP here--I promise you I am not making this up, nor did I do something by accident. All you have to do is go to Redfin and check out their new FAQs. There is now one about their alliance with Facebook and who to contact if you have concerns about data privacy. Below is the response I got from Redfin

Thanks for your feedback, we appreciate your concern. [b]We're testing this feature to make it easier to Redfin users to engage with your friends and family in Facebook. [/b]

While you may not have had my experience, consider yourself lucky and now warned.

Trust me, I have tried everything to try to get this random house with its listing price hidden on my profile page--no go. You can NOT unlike it via the redfine site. Nor can you 'hide' the like via the normal facebook privacy features. Interestingy enough, by following the facebook directions, I've been able to hide the only 2 other likes I ever had on my profile. But, for whatever reason, the redfin one remains.

To the poster who said 'no big deal' I ask whether you really want facebook acquaintences (including boss/coworkers etc) knowing the price ranges of houses you are looking at (or knowing that you plan to move potentially far away from your current job). Even if I only provide partial access to my profile, everybody can still see this like (I asked a few people with different levels of access to my profile to let me know if they still saw it after I hid my likes and they all did).

Total bummer. [/quote]
