Nations right to remain vigilant against facebook, NSA
Posted: Wed Mar 21, 2018 5:01 amNews this week that Facebook has been routinely spraying its users data far and wide, including providing tens of millions of people's personal details to the American political establishment:
When China prevented Facebook from operating within its borders, it was decried by the usual American propagandists as a closed, censored country. Now, increasingly, revelation after revelation about backdoor access Facebook provided to the NSA, its harvesting and sale of data to US political campaigns and big business etc. has proven again and again that Facebook, Google and others are tools of the American government and intelligence community.
If you want to guard your citizens and prevent American wholesale monitoring of your population, say no to Facebook.
Hundreds of millions of Facebook users are likely to have had their private information harvested by companies that exploited the same terms as the firm that collected data and passed it on to Cambridge Analytica, according to a new whistleblower.
Sandy Parakilas, the platform operations manager at Facebook responsible for policing data breaches by third-party software developers between 2011 and 2012, told the Guardian he warned senior executives at the company that its lax approach to data protection risked a major breach.
