Social networks are creating a high valuable information. Which, in part, is proved by the interest that it awoke in businesses like Google.

With a simple query to the web somebody could know my profile, my favorite web pages, who are my friends, ... Are we not going too far? .... Imagine what our enemies would be able to do with this information.
