I used to be a heavy facebook user. Now I log in once a week for messages.
Privacy was not the major contributing factor of me stopping the usage of facebook, but how "nosy" I felt in other peoples lives when I don't even talk to them. The more I used facebook the more alone I felt.
Another issue was the cluttered feel to it. The addition of a twitter clone feed made everything feel like an "all-in-one" solution.
After going on a month long without Facebook, whenever I met my colleages, I would have a lot more to say to them and genuinely ask questions about whats going on in their lives. I default alot less to my phone after I meet with friends.
