I still think we should have control over who can see our sims info outside of the game. Does anyone know if someone on facebook who does NOT have a TSO account can view this information?

Anyone with a facebook account that is logged in can visit

as a visitor.
Why on earth anyone would want to look at a bunch of EA-Land avatars and information pages is beyond me. Even if they look at it, they won't have a clue what it is. lol.

Hey Gracie, I need a 'Facebook' for Dummies book. Could you help me out if you know the answer to this?
I went and tried to 'surf' the Avatar Pages. When I did a 'general search' of the avatar pages, only 6 pages of avatars came up. When I searched for a couple of friends I know are still in the game but aren't on my page, they did not show up. When I searched for my own sims, they did not show up. The only sim that came up under search was the sim I had selected for my avatar book.
I am wondering if in order to actually 'view' someone's avatar in the avatar book from outside the game, wouldn't the player have needed to set up their 'Facebook' already and installed it onto their page?
(For those wondering, this was an 'outside' search of Facebook not from inside the game. The issue was raised about 'outsiders' viewing the info.)
When you click Avatar Book...this is what it says:...
"Create avatars and build a personal page for each avatar you create. Navigate through the avatar friend web and interact with other avatars. Share your avatar activity with your friends and use it to play EA games.Users: 160 daily active users (5%)"
(6 pages is about 160 users and I do believe there are more than 160 avatars in EAland isn't there?)
When you click the application it says:
When you become a fan of Avatar Book, it will display on your profile. Allow Avatar Book to send Updates to the Updates tab of my Facebook Inbox. (You choose to accept or not.)
Anyone wanna help me out with this? Where do I find that gigantic list of all the sims in EAland on Facebook?
***And don't we have to have an 'EALand' log in to use Avatar Book?
