This is links INSIDE a pdf. Thats one step further than most people assumed.
- manojlds 7y agoMostly to scan the PDF and ensure it's safe I believe, or atleast that's would be the stated reason.
- strstr 7y agoI can believe that (despite the obvious creepyness), since FB users have a knack for getting owned and spreading that ownage to other users.
- gryffin 7y agoPDF is an open format. Scanning PDF for the links is probably the least you could assume. You gotta assume they will reconstruct generations of your family tree if they can from your chat history.
- twothamendment 7y ago"...reconstruct generations of your family tree if they can from your chat history." People might pay good money for that!
- nitwit005 7y agoThen people have strange assumptions. Once a service starts blocking malicious links, the obvious next step is to conceal the link through some sort of indirection.
