    Depends, it's custom but most are friends only or frieds of friends in some cases.

    I believe that there are some people who think Custom (default) is actually more private that Friends Only but don't realise that it is actually Friends of Friends. Facebook is "smart"...

    Custom in my case meant custom, i.e. individually setting each thing. Dont think that shows it to friends of friends if you tell it not to.

    If you just select Custom without changing the setting (e.g. selecting specific people/lists to make visible or hide from) than it's on Friends of Friends...
