- jgrahamc 15y agoI have those enabled as well, of course, but they are quite hard to interpret and I've had a few false positives.
- jsherry 15y agoI've had false positives on these alerts too, but I'm willing to put up with them. As long as there are no false negatives, I will be happy ;-)

- lazerwalker 15y agoThis is actually a fantastic feature. I was recently traveling in Europe, and without thinking logged into Facebook without HTTPS (using a third-party iframe app that couldn't use HTTPS). Within a few hours, I had a notification from FB letting me know that there was a new login from the same city I was in and a different OS/web browser combo.
- peng 15y agoI've experienced this too. Apparently, Google Chrome on OS X gets labeled Opera/Win XP by Facebook. I was paranoid for a little while, wondering how these hackers kept tracking me around the world with that browser/os combo.
- pyre 15y agoThat doesn't help much if they gained access to your Facebook through your hacked email account.

- afterburner 15y agoIt'd be neat if it texted me when suspicious activity occurred, rather than just the in-Gmail alert.
