How to configure Facebook to use SSL encryption (https secure browsing)

[demonman4512]

SSL could be bad news because it means only a couple of companies will know what is really going on i.e. the sites you are using. This means they will get more powerful because others won't have a way to get the info they need to compete. If you like monopolies then use SSL by all means.

Was available, finally, in the Montreal region yesterday. I modified it in my account settings.

Thank you, Sophos for posting this and for your constant efforts to educate users. The option hasn't shown up on my settings yet but I'll be sure to keep checking. Will also share with Fb friends :-]

why do i not seeing this "secure browsing" option?? T_T

i am looking under account security now and has login alerts and account activity?

@skittlzboi Facebook hasn't rolled out the functionality to all accounts yet. I haven't got it yet on my Facebook account either.

It may take Facebook a couple of weeks to give it to everyone, so keep checking the settings option that Chet shows you in the video - and when it appears, enable it!
