Kurdish blogger warns Facebook users about security issue.
Lately, Facebook social website officials have made some changes to the website regarding its design and interface. However, these changes have opened paths to security leaks and made Facebook users exposed.
“Due to these leaks, Facebook users` photos have been revealed to everybody, including friends, non- friends, and even those who hid themselves in search box of the website,” said Wali Sheikh Ali, a Kurdish blogger and translator. He also added: “I can say there is nothing left called privacy on Facebook due to these leaks.”
According to former Facebook Privacy Settings, no one was allowed to see your photos, posts, videos, your comments and likes on other pages, and etc. Regarding informing Facebook officials about the leak, Mr. Wali answered negatively and also added: “before, when somebody informed Facebook officials about a security breach or leak, they answered routinely. Also, many times when somebody informed them, after eliminating the leak, they didn`t reward the person, instead they closed his/her account.”
At the end, Wali Sheikh Ali warns Kurdish users to be careful while using their accounts, and not to post a photo or video until they are completely sure they want people other than their friends to see it.
Facebook website comes second in rank after Google. Due to this, it has been targeted and hacked on many occasions by hackers.
