Facebook New data scandal to advertisers

Facebook shares personal σας που δεν έχετε υποβάλει ποτέ στο κοινωνικό δίκτυο με τους of. Of course you can't from their records.Facebook

A document (PDF) published by researchers at Northeastern University and the of Princeton, examines how ad targeting works on Facebook.

Let's see what the researchers found:

Say you have a number τηλεφώνου και ένα σταθερού και αναρτήσατε μόνο τον πρώτο στο προφίλ σας στο Facebook. Αν ένας διαφημιζόμενος έχει τον αριθμό του κινητού στη βάση δεδομένων του, μπορεί να τον χρησιμοποιήσει για να σας στοχεύσει με διαφημίσεις στο Faceboοk. Αν ο διαφημιζόμενος έχει και τον αριθμό του σταθερού σας, θα μπορούσε να σας στοχεύσει με διαφημίσεις και με αυτόν.

Is it possible to have it, if you have not shared your Facebook number?

You may not have given it to Facebook, but if you gave your station number to a friend who is also on the social network and has saved it in his address book (which he has access to Facebook), then he can associate it with your profile.

Such as he says the Gizmodo, Facebook did not previously admit to doing so. In addition, if you give the social network a mobile phone number only to authenticate two factors, that number ends up again in the advertisers' lists even though they are not in public view on Facebook.

Naturally, all of the above is not one of Facebook's biggest privacy violations, but once again proves that the company does not care about your privacy at all.

  1. I'm not impressed. We have seen it as certain for years.
    So does Google obviously.
    In this case, however, Facebook will not withstand the pressure and will soon become the arm of the company that will exist and will be the result of the merger of Microsoft and Google. Arm where techniques and technologies that could not (s.s. did not want to be exact) be embraced by Ms and G by putting a "front" to do the dirty… research and application. Facebook.
    Half a minute though. This reminds in part the trunk of the script Mr Robot and the reported E Corp?
    Maybe. Maybe it was a prelude to the masses. A "hare" scenario for what follows. Not in the long run.
    Maybe not again, but find my child, we also have that George Orwell, who had said it with N and S, years ago…
