ZUCKERBERG ADMITS: 2 BILLION USERS HAD THEIR PERSONAL INFORMATION SHARED

Sharing is caring in the slums of the socials.

The INTERNET is enraged over what it knew in the back of its collective head since TIME mag named Mark Zuckerberg their person of the year..

Facebook said Wednesday that most of its 2 billion users likely have had their public profiles scraped by outsiders without the users’ explicit permission!

The acknowledgment was part of a broader disclosure by Facebook on Wednesday about the ways in which various levels of user data have been taken by everyone from malicious actors to ordinary app developers.

“We’re an idealistic and optimistic company, and for the first decade, we were really focused on all the good that connecting people brings,” Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg said on a call with reporters Wednesday afternoon. “But it’s clear now that we didn’t focus enough on preventing abuse and thinking about how people could use these tools for harm as well.”

IN THE MEAN TIME.. TENDER TIME WITH TINDER GOES HAYWIRE THANKS TO FACEBOOK PROBLEMS!

When logging into Tinder using Facebook, you get a prompt that says the app “requires you provide additional Facebook permissions in order to create or use a Tinder account.” “This information is used to create fuller profiles, verify authenticity and provide support,” the pop-up reads. After pressing “Ask Me,” the app directs you to Facebook’s site to log in. Tinder then asks you to hand over “relationship interests, work history, and education history” from Facebook. Once you tap “Continue” in the Facebook app, you’re taken back to the Tinder app, where you will either see a loading “Logging In” icon or an error.
