    I'm arranging to meet a friend from Oz in Bali next month. With messenger we sat down and did all the flights and hotels in half an hour.

    Imagine trying to do all that shite with email.

    Some of you are real luddites.

    Facebook is sued after stock plunge 'shocked' market
    https://www.reuters.com/article/us-f...-idUSKBN1KH2JY

    The complaint filed by shareholder James Kacouris in Manhattan federal court accused Facebook, Zuckerberg and Chief Financial Officer David Wehner of making misleading statements about or failing to disclose slowing revenue growth, falling operating margins, and declines in active users.

    Kacouris said the marketplace was “shocked” when “the truth” began to emerge on Wednesday from the Menlo Park, California-based company. He said the 19 percent plunge in Facebook shares the next day stemmed from federal securities law violations by the defendants.
    Good luck with that Mr. Kacouris.

    TD members will understand that the question posed in the previous post was rhetorical.

    Facebook says 50 million profiles hacked, not sure who is behind it or why

    Facebook has reported a major security breach in which 50 million user accounts were accessed by unknown attackers.

    Key points:
    • About 90 million people were logged out to help fix the problem
    • Anyone having difficulty logging back in is advised to visit the site's help centre
    • There is no need to change Facebook passwords


    In a blog post, the company said hackers exploited a bug that affected its "View As" feature, which lets people see what their profiles look like to someone else.

    That would let attackers steal "access tokens," which are digital keys that Facebook uses to keep people logged in.
    Possession of those tokens would allow attackers to "seize control" of user accounts, Facebook said.

    Specifically, from the View As feature, a bug somehow allowed a video uploader to appear for sending "happy birthday" messages, Guy Rosen, Facebook's vice president of product management said.

    Another bug then created an access token that made Facebook think the hacker had legitimately signed in with the account being viewed.
    "We haven't yet been able to determine if there was specific targeting," Mr Rosen said in a call with reporters.
    Someone is sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago ...
