I've just realised that in Groups I'm a member of, using a pc, you can click on a fellow member's name, and 2 icons to the right of the Message icon, is View Main Profile. Clicking this I'm able to see a load of postings which I think could well be non-Public.  How can I ensure this is disabled on my own profile?  These are not people I know or have any connection with other than being members of a similar interest group.

    you will only be able to see their activity within that FB group. If you view their main profile you will only see publicly available content from them unless you are a friend on FB with them.
