My mother believes that if she puts a "website" link on Facebook, if a

non-friend clicks on that link....? My mother in extremely unintelligent and resistant... She believes that if she puts a "website" link on Facebook (with her own Facebook address listed as the website), if a non-friend clicks on that link that they can see her entire profile (even the parts that are private or set to "friends only"). As you and I both know, this is asinine. When she lists her Facebook URL as her "website," if a non-friend clicks on it, it merely takes you to her profile, the same one that you see it if you did a Facebook search.

However, she is so unintelligent and ignorant that she uses the following as justification that I am wrong: "If you go into the preview mode and view your profile like non-friends see it [she has everything except her Info tab set to friends-only], and click on my website link, it takes you to my whole profile." She completely ignores the fact that she has then exited the "View As" mode by clicking on her profile. I even tried to explain this by explaining how Javascript works, and how if she changes the actual URL in the address bar, she is no longer in the View As/Preview mode, etc. but nothing works.

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME EXPLAIN THIS TO HER!!!
