Facebook exectives will meet today at 4 p.m. Pacific time to discuss the company's approach to privacy, AllFacebook.com
reports.
The sit-down comes after weeks of intensifying backlash to new features on the site,
including the controversial instant personalization, which shares users' data with three outside companies -- Yelp, Microsoft Docs and Pandora. Users can opt out, but consumer advocates as well as
lawmakers say that Facebook shouldn't share users' data with other companies unless people have explicitly consented.
All Facebook speculates that the company might either suspend instant
personalization or, alternatively, make the program opt-in.
