Facebook vs Google Plus

Facebook

• Facial Recognition - Facebook uses software to pick you out in photos and prompts your friends to tag you.
• Guessing Your Interests - The site will actually guess your interests based on those of your friends, even if you've provide no information
• Sharing Your Phone Number - Your phone number and other contact info is made available to Facebook developers.Since some of these developer platforms include malware and the like, this could have very unpleasant consequences

• Mapping Your Location - With Facebook Places, your account updates where you are when you post, sharing with the world your location
• Forecasting Your Breakups - Facebook can actually scan status updates for specific words and has shown that after Valentine's Day and before spring break are the biggest seasons for breakups
• Missing Information Leaks -  Certain Facebook applications, such as Farmville, have been found to be leaking information to third parties, including advertisers
• Keeping Track of Your Habits - By clicking the "Like" button on others sites, Facebook can track your web habits and see which sites you spend more time on. The "Like" button is considered illegal in Germany, with a 500,000 euro fine.

Google Plus

• No Anonymity - With Google Plus, you can use a pseudonym, only your real name, which could be problematic if you prefer to remain anonymous
• Blocking Doesn't Block You - When you block someone, your comments and likes still show up on their page
• Anyone Can Add You - There's currently no way to prevent other users from adding you to their circles
• No Circle Exclusion - While you can includes as many circles in a share as you like you cannot exclude them automatically. Each circle must be selected individually
