Facebook just scattered their Privacy Settings to a set of “other categories” throughout the service. This means that while you might’ve previously had the opportunity to drop in to the single Privacy Settings section of the Facebook app/webpage to address all of your concerns, now you’ll need to seek and tap each item in different places. This redesign is hidden in a Facebook presentation called “making it easier to navigate settings.”

Starting with updates to apps on August 4 for iOS, Android, mobile web (in browsers), and on FB Lite, Settings will be reorganized. We are HOPING that the entire system will be as Facebook claims they’re it’ll be: Easier to navigate, with “privacy in mind.” Given what we’ve seen of Facebook’s many, many changes to privacy settings and less-than-stellar responses to privacy leaks and related matters in the past, including in the very recent past, we can only really cross our fingers and see.
