I think that these infographic were fascinating. Although the image at the top is very confusing, I think it demonstrates the point of the image. All the options that are available on Facebook to protect your privacy are available if you can figure it out. The same can be said about the graphic. I am not sure about the wisdom of showing confusion. One of the comments in the class discussion was that they couldn't understand it. Maybe it is only me that took as confusing on purpose but also informative.
The illustration of the length of the privacy policies show how long it has increased over time. Instead of a bar chart, they chose to use an image of a document and I think it helped to visualize what they were saying. The circles nicely show the number of words in privacy policies and then compare it to the US constitution.
