Facebook is the mostly used social media all over the world. Is started its actual journey of growing from 2006 and after that they don’t have look back. They are just growing after that and giving new features to people all the time.
And people get so much attract with facebook for this reason. People love to share their day to day life on this. And people who are on facebook always seek for more likes on their status then other. They thoughts is a prestigious issue to get more like then others.
But in this race they forget a very important thing and that is their privacy. When anyone enter on facebook, they lost their privacy to facebook.
You might don’t know but facebook really knows a lot about you that you never ever want to share in public. But the true fact is that facebook knows everything about you.
As they know everything about you and when you use their log in button on other third party website, that website get all of the data that you have given on facebook. This is happening from years and none of the facebook users properly knows about it. As click the “i agree” button during sign up process without reading their terms and data policy.
