My Facebook Was Breached by Cambridge Analytica. Was Yours?
- notjtrig 9y agoWhen I deleted my main Facebook they were using JavaScript to analyze unsent messages, I feel like my computer was breached by Facebook more than my Facebook was breached by any 3rd party.
- Sylamore 9y agoThis wasn't a breach, it's literally how facebook was designed to work historically. Regardless of whether your friend knowingly accepted the terms of some app which grabbed all of their graph info you yourself didn't actually consent to that sharing of data by that 3rd party. You could argue that anything you shared on facebook was effectively public domain information (that's been my position for a long time anyway) but it's certainly not how the majority of users understand it. But now suddenly people realize this information can be used to manipulate others and they are concerned after handing it out freely for nearly a decade and they're calling it a breach when it was the system working as designed?
