Facebook - information leak in application

11 MAI 2011

Facebook users' personal information might have been accidentally leaked to third parties, fox example advertisers, over the past few years, Symantec revealed in their blog.

What happened was that so-called tokens were subject to leakage. These tokens, which are kinds of tools given by the application, may for instance access user's Facebook profile.

This issue definitely tarnished Facebook reputation in terms of privacy.

This is why what matters most for Modernfamilies is your privacy and personal safety.

Nobody outside your network can have any access to your personal information. This is of the utmost importance.

Der Standard berichtet vom Trend zur vernetzten Familie

22 OKT 2008

DerStandard berichtet von einer Pew Studie über Familien in den USA, die aufzeigt, dass Familien moderne Technologien wie das Internet, PC und das Handy mehr einsetzen als andere Teile der Gesellschaft, um in Kontakt zu bleiben. Familien werden zu vernetzten Familien. Der Einsatz dieser Technologien führe keineswegs zur Passivität sondern fördert den Austausch und geht zu lasten des TV Konsums.
