Facebook User Unable to Make Their Information Private
Personal details by hundred million Facebook users accept to collect and published online in a download-able data file, meaning today they’ll now be not able to create their publicly accessible information nonpublic. Even so, facebook downplayed the issue, telling that no more confidential data been compromised.
The truth was posted by Ron Bowes, an online security consultant, on the Internet site Pirate Bay to highlight privacy issues, the BBC reported.
Ron Bowes used code to scan the 500 million facebook profiles for information not hidden by privacy settings. The resulting file, which allows people to perform searches of various different types, has been downloaded by at least 1,000 people.
