Facebook selling your privacy for five bucks

October 27, 2012

Constantly embroiled in some sort of privacy battle, Facebook is now investigating what could have been a data breach or at least a misuse of information collected through third-party apps. As revealed by a Bulgarian blogger, a website was found selling more than a million data entries of Facebook users for only $5.

Bogomil Shopov, a digital rights activist, wrote that the entries included information like users’ names, Facebook URLs and email addresses, which he verified were valid.
