The latest scandal with Facebook, Cambridge Analitica and the acquisition of confidential data tens of millions of users of the site, is coming more and more. It turns out that this is just the tip of the iceberg of a powerful surveillance machine built by the authorities of the largest social networking site for years.
Facebook has been able to acquire as much personal data as we can on our smartphones every day. Recently, the mobile Facebook application for conversations, Facebook Messenger, is very popular. In order to fully use its full potential, you must allow it to view our photo galleries, register of phone calls and text messages.
And although the awareness of accepting the management of our confidential data had and has millions of people, they do not realize that this data is being sent to Facebook servers on an ongoing basis, processed and used in various ways.
Dylan McKay, a resident of New Zealand, after the outbreak of the last affair, decided to look more closely at the data collected by the largest social networking site in the world. In the ZIP file, which he downloaded from the site, various information about his activity appeared over several years! However, the most struck was the fact that Facebook had dates, phone numbers, names, and even the duration of his conversations.
Worst of all, there is no physical means to remove confidential information from the database collected on our topic by Facebook. Despite all these rumors, most users will surely grit their teeth and stay on the site, although there are people such as Elon Musk, who finally said enough and removed the accounts of their companies from the website of Marek Zuckerberg.
