The chief executive and founder of Facebook Mark Zuckerberg confessed that users find Facebook's controversial privacy controls "too complex", but the social networking website will move to fix them to be as simple as possible soon.

According to Telegraph.co.uk, Zuckerberg stated that the 400 million users of Facebook were "a challenge to keep satisfied", but continued to assert that "if people share more, the world will become more open and connected, and a world that is more open and connected is a better world".

On the other hand, he stated that the reactions of user to new privacy settings changes suggested that sometimes Facebook moves too fast and they respond after listening to recent concerns. Their intention was to give users a lot of granular controls, but that may not have been the users' concerns. Facebook sort of missed the mark there.

Zuckerberg agreed that information controls need a simpler way and gave his word that Facebook will add much simpler privacy controls in the coming weeks.

He also added that the social networking site operates under five principles which provides users control over their personal information and also ensure that Facebook is free and does not provide private information access for other users, advertisers or services that individuals are not keen to permit.
