===Facebook and Beacon=== In November 2007, a drive spearheaded by MoveOn caused [[Facebook]] to change its controversial new Beacon program, which notified Facebook users about purchases by people on their friends list. The Facebook group "Petition: Facebook, stop invading my privacy!" had over 54,000 members at the time the announcement was made that Facebook was changing Beacon to an opt-in system.<ref>[http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/F/FACEBOOK_ABOUT_FACE?SITE=WIMIL&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT Liedtke, Michael.
