    Interesting. I was glad to see that it is off by default.

    But who is going to find that and turn it on? If they want to gain traction with this, they'll need to force the issue at some point. Keeping an eye out. I don't like it.

    "Instant personalization is different from social plugins. Social plugin content comes directly from Facebook and no information is shared with the websites themselves.

    To turn off instant personalization on all partner sites, uncheck the box below. This will prevent these partners from receiving any of your information through instant personalization, even content you have made available to everyone."

    Mine was on by default. I think that may depend, to some extent on how your other privacy settings are set.

    I keep my facebook wide open, and don't add information that I don't want publicized to it.

    I am tempted to turn it on to see it in action. Have you seen any of the partner sites that they refer to using it?

    I use Bing, but I haven't noticed anything that jumpped out at me. I'll be looking for it next time I'm over there though.

    P.S. any chance of getting FB logins to persist here? I guess clicking on the button isn't that hard, but i keep forgetting to do it.

    Hey Dane. So I can easily keep track of BZ issues, let's pick up the login issue on this list in the comments:

    I responded there.
