Facebook. A series of internal company documents were published today by the Parliament of Great Britain, after a series of shocking things were discovered, which were rumored until now, but today they become official. Let's start with the fact that Facebook used the Onavo VPN network, renamed in Protect after buying the platform, to spy on ALL users who chose to use it to be protected when browsing the Internet, although in reality they were entering the "mouth of the wolf".
Facebook. The company used the data retrieved through this VPN network to analyze how we use applications, what we do with them, through them, or what kind of data we transfer using the platform. Facebook used this confidential information to decide which platforms should be bought, or which should be treated as hostile, a danger to its own, which is an act of espionage, all without the users knowing what is happening with their data.
Facebook used Onavo to conduct global surveys of the usage of mobile apps by customers, and apparently without their knowledge. They used this data to assess not just how many people had downloaded apps, but how often they used them. This knowledge helped them to decide which companies to acquire, and which to treat as a threat.
Facebook. SHOCKING, SECRET documents show how he SPYED on us
Facebook. In the same internal documents published by the British officials, it is confirmed that information regarding phone calls and messages of Android users was secretly collected by the company. After it became public knowledge that this was happening, Facebook tried to modify its applications to make it very difficult to analyze it so as to confirm that the problems still exist, as they have not been eliminated even today.
Facebook knew that the changes to its policies on the Android mobile phone system, which enabled the Facebook app to collect a record of calls and texts sent by the user, would be controversial. To mitigate any bad PR, Facebook planned to make it as hard as possible for users to know that this was one of the underlying features of the upgrade of their app.
Facebook. Following the same idea of making fun of people, the company gave other third-party companies the opportunity to access data about users and their friends, without them knowing. All this information regarding Facebook's tactics has been revealed in the past, but no one believed them until now, but these internal documents confirm without any doubt that everyone was lied to for years, without any remorse , by Facebook.
