Of course, the embedded videos respect the privacy settings you applied on it so if you make the video private and exclusive for your friends only, they are the only one who can see the embedded form.

There are other features announced by Facebook during the event which focuses on expanding the Facebook Messenger’s platform and making it an avenue for developers to build their app directly on the said platform. You can check this blog post from BusinessInsider for details about it.

So what do you think about this new feature of Facebook?
