DISQUS

Ryan Merket · 2 years ago

Isn't Facebook, and everything on their servers, their property? I mean, if they pulled the plug tomorrow, would they be forced to give all the information back to the users?

What is the exact legality in question?

I failed to add the phrase "and that significant data has been leaked." It appears that the lawsuit is regarding a serious breach of information.

"Facebook opened up the platform, but the entire site has been completely open for Facebook employees since the beginning."

Don't confuse "open" with "insecure"- FB opening their platform does not implicitly expose their users' data to rogue application developers just because their employees have root access.

That said, if they do not design the system with security in mind at all levels internal and external from the ground up, one simple code bug (like an SQL injection leak) that allows an outsider to log in with employee credentials would be a complete and catastrophic security failure.

Considering that Facebook employees have full access to administrative actions regardless of any reports or investigations

they can simply look at a report deem you to have broken some rules and lock you out without any justification or reasoning other then the ones given by them

no claims no appeals nothing

really poor Customer support
