Will security become Facebook's Achilles' heel?
- utnick 19y agoarticle is flawed 1. User authentication was not 'tossed out the window'. You still need a .edu email address from the college network you would like to join. Which is the same authentication they had in the beginning. 2. Facebook actually has pretty good privacy controls. Feel free to block who sees your profile based on friends status or network. 3. Use the 'other applications' tab in the privacy menu to disallow applications from seeing your info. 4. So you're mad because they wanted your DOB? That req is there for legal reasons i believe. You could have made one up if you want. Or you could have not cared because your DOB is already public info.
