Conditi will have a hard time proving it wasn't a bug and the data was actually being used in the way she describes it.
- mtgx 6y agoThis thing where Facebook collects a lot of data in ways to which most people would object for years and years, and then when they get caught they claim it was a "bug", is getting really old. To make matters worse, they usually tend to re-introduce the "bug" as some kind of feature a few years later, as their way of saying "yes, we really do thing our users are that stupid to not realize what we've done, why do you ask?!"
- bitL 6y agoGoogle started it with the WiFi collection "bug" and offline location collection "bug".
- im3w1l 6y agoThat makes me think... what kind of insight into facebook's inner workings might we get from the discovery?
- throwaway2048 6y agoah yes, another "bug" that happens to result in massive data collection, oops.
