    If I accept an invite on Facebook call all my friends see where I am when the event is on? Is this a bit of a privacy breach.....

    Only if you feel the need to be private about the top secret exclusive events you are going to. I wouldn't really care

    Its a public website and you are publicly accepting an invite to an event. This has nothing to do with a privacy breach.

    If you dont want all your friends to see where you are just dont accept. Simples....
