What data does Facebook collect and share?

27/3/2018

0 Comments

 
Do you know what data Facebook holds of you? Well there's an easy way to find out.

Over the recent past - Cambridge Analytica have come under fire for their revelations about how they access our information and use it to their 'clients' advantage in helping the middle-grounders decide which way to vote, for example. 

Every time you install an app on Facebook, you will see that it needs your permission to access certain data from your account, such as  contacts, phone numbers and location etc. Without accepting these conditions, the app will not be installed. Most of which are needed for the app to work - but others are for data collection. This data is then collected by the app company and probably sold to companies like Cambridge Analytica for later use. This collected data can be used to target specific adverts at you, already knowing what you like, where you go and your email address.

While most people would expect Facebook to have data on how they use the apps, they're a little shocked to discover it has access to everything from all the contacts on their phone to a record of every text message they've ever sent or received, even if they don't use Facebook Messenger. But that's not all Facebook has. The information they collect can also contain the phone numbers of people who aren't even on Facebook!

Google knows where you have been, how long you have spent there and what road at what time of the day. I did a blog on this >>here<<.

Collectively, Facebook and Google know EVERYTHING about you. Google also knows the websites you go to, the searches you make - imagine if a single company had all of this information? Well, they already do.

To find out what Facebook has on you, follow these simple steps below and download the zip file. If you can't open it, download 7-zip from here.

Infinite alert hoax virus

If you see anything like this on your PC - read on.

Web sites are being penetrated to display an infected page that places a Javascript alert inside an infinite loop. To the user, they are unable to escape from a dialog box and cannot navigate to other tabs. It appears as if the browser is locked. The page displays ominous warnings about virus infections, pornography, and lost personal information, frequently accompanied by a robo-voice reinforcing the message. To 'fix' the problem, users are urgently advised to call a toll free number. The call is transferred to India, where the attendant tries to gain control of the user's computer. Once inside, they display many false warning messages and finally try to charge between $400 - $600 to 'clean' the problem.
PC Pitstop, the makers of PC Matic, has developed a technology to block the hoax and gather the telephone numbers the hoax is employing. Take  look at PC Matic, who have targeted this kind of attack>>> pc-matic
