FB should timestamp these articles. It happened a couple of weeks ago, or is this new news?
- crunchlibrarian 8y agoThis is new, particularly the details around search history and location data being stolen, as of an hour ago.
- what_ever 8y agoI think it's the security incident that happened couple of weeks ago and they have more details now?
- philsnow 8y agoEverybody should timestamp all articles. People don't want to because they want their content to be "evergreen" and they think that if there's a date that's more than a year or so old, people will disregard / discount the content. So by default many blog CMSs default to not showing the date of any articles.
- coliveira 8y agoFacebook is not a small blog operator. They should view this as a professional communications medium.
- staticautomatic 8y agoSomeone in Facebook's PR department is reading this part of the thread and saying "it's working!"
- andrewflnr 8y agoIf your content is "evergreen", show me a "last updated" timestamp in the last year. /grump
- mygo 8y agopublished timestamps. another vestige of the earlier blog web. You can thank SEO for that. Something about older content being less "relevant"
- Buge 8y agoThe first article has the date at the top: "October 12, 2018". They might intend to repeatedly update the second one, which might be a reason not to put a published date on it.
