Did you know hat everything you do is not only permanently stored and saved, but completely available to Facebook staff and associates? That's what an anonymous employee of Facebook is claiming.
The source further goes on to state that "any sort of interaction on Facebook (say your uploading a photo, visiting somebody's profile, or even updates to your status, or amending your profile information) that activity is stored on Facebook's servers.
Why is this done? Well it's done so that Facebook can identify a member's "best friends," a feature which debuted recently,rather quietly where the site tracks and stores (at one of four massive data centers) every possible interaction made.
And if that wasn't socialist in nature and troubling enough, there are now revelations that any Facebook employee could log into any member account with a single master password (which was reportedly some derivation of Chuck Norris). The anonymous worker also said that various employees were caught inappropriately using that password to gain access to accounts. I guess we should feel happy that at least two of whom were terminated?
The site All Facebook has expectedly and deservedly retaliated to the anonymous whistleblower claims, and has dismissed the supposed expose' as rather common everyday knowledge with which all Facebook members should be completely familiar.
Now I ask you how many of you knew that?
