Maybe you were under the illusion that there is privacy on the Internet. This should be a wakeup call.
If you are blocking posts for Person A, but not Person B, the moment Person A and Person B talk your "privacy settings" are over.
Even without this leaking in the JSON, people can TALK to each other, or show each other their Facebook accounts, and you can't control that. This applies to Facebook, Twitter DMs, Google+ circles, email, and whenever you think you are posting privately over the Internet.
- badclient 14y agoThere is privacy on the Internet. I think it is an illusion that you cannot have privacy on the Internet. Sure, Person A can always DECIDE to talk to Person B. But that does not mean I voluntarily tell Person B everything that I only want Person A to know. This specific argument of yours doesn't even have much to do with the Internet. You are basically saying it is useless to ever share anything with only a specific group of people because the specific group of people can always just talk to everyone else you don't wish to share the information with.
