30 despre datele voastre online
marți, martie 27th, 2018Unele exagerate, altele care se aplica doar celor care folosesc telefoane cu Android. Merita citite.
Want to freak yourself out? I'm gonna show just how much of your information the likes of Facebook and Google store about you without you even realising it

1. https://t.co/1z255Zt1zf Google stores your location (if you have it turned on) every time you turn on your phone, and you can see a timeline from the first day you started using Google on your phone
— Dylan Curran (@iamdylancurran) March 24, 2018
2. This is every place I have been in the last twelve months in Ireland, going in so far as the time of day I was in the location and how long it took me to get to that location from my previous one pic.twitter.com/I1kB1vwntT

3. https://t.co/qFCgY6QLN5 Google stores search history across all your devices on a separate database, so even if you delete your search history and phone history, Google STILL stores everything until you go in and delete everything, and you have to do this on all devices

4. https://t.co/QRfgwkNj80 Google creates an advertisement profile based on your information, including your location, gender, age, hobbies, career, interests, relationship status, possible weight (need to lose 10lbs in one day?) and income
— Dylan Curran (@iamdylancurran) March 24, 2018
5. Google stores information on every app and extension you use, how often you use them, where you use them, and who you use them to interact with (who do you talk to on facebook, what countries are you speaking with, what time you go to sleep at) https://t.co/RJeRlXhtdq
— Dylan Curran (@iamdylancurran) March 24, 2018
6. https://t.co/5B6qxUvrJz Google stores ALL of your YouTube history, so they know whether you're going to be a parent soon, if you're a conservative, if you're a progressive, if you're Jewish, Christian, or Muslim, if you're feeling depressed or suicidal, if you're anorexic…
— Dylan Curran (@iamdylancurran) March 24, 2018
7. Google offers an option to download all of the data it stores about you, I've requested to download it and the file is 5.5GB BIG, which is roughly 3 MILLION Word documents https://t.co/3Na4FxjNXk

9. Your calendar, your Google hangout sessions, your location history, the music you listen to, the Google books you've purchased, the Google groups you're in, the websites you've created, the phones you've owned, the pages you've shared, how many steps you walk in a day…

— Dylan Curran (@iamdylancurran) March 24, 2018
15. And they store all the applications you've ever had connected to your Facebook account, so they can guess I'm interested in politics and web and graphic design, that I was single between X and Y period with the installation of Tinder, and I got a HTC phone in November… pic.twitter.com/bkXruVZxLP

19. This is one of the craziest things about the modern age, we would never let the government or a corporation put cameras/microphones in our homes or location trackers on us, but we just went ahead and did it ourselves because fuck it I want to watch cute dog videos

50 milioane/30 milioane/270,000
duminică, martie 18th, 2018Faptele, asa cum au fost anuntate de Facebook:
1. Facebook a anuntat vineri ca a suspendat/blocat activitatea companiei Strategic Communication Laboratories impreuna cu divizia lor de research, Cambridge Analytica.
2. Cele doua companii au fost implicate in campania electorala din SUA, lucrand pentru actualul presedinte, Donald Trump, si au fost infiintate de Robert Mercer, unul dintre cei mai importanti donatori ai lui Donald Trump. Cambridge Analytica a fost condusa de Steve Bannon, fostul „strateg sef” candidatului Trump, plecat recent din echipa lui de la Casa Alba.
3. Facebook a anuntat ca datele a 270,000 de useri ai platformei au fost folosite de catre cele doua companii fara a avea acceptul Fb. Datele au fost preluate de la o alta companie, Global Science Research, care dezvoltase o aplicatie “thisisyourdigitallife”.
Faptele, asa cum s-au intamplat:
1. Anuntul Facebook de vineri seara a avut loc pentru ca sambata The Guardian a publicat povestea „datelor” „culese” de Cambridge Analytica. Facebook a incercat sa blocheze materialul pana in ultima clipa insa cand au inteles ca articolul va aparea, au dat drumul comunicatului de presa.
2. Facebook a stiut de acum doi ani ca datele userilor au fost utilizate in scop electoral. In 2017 au mai avut o confirmare. Abia vineri seara au anuntat, sub presiunea presei care punea intrebari, ca datele a 270,000 useri au fost folosite in afara retelei.
3. Unul dintre cercetatorii de la Global Science Research este acum angajat Facebook

4. Facebook a mintit public despre datele detinute de Cambridge Analytica inclusiv luna trecuta, intr-o audiere in Parlamentul Britanic:
Last month, Facebook’s UK director of policy, Simon Milner, told British MPs on a select committee inquiry into fake news, chaired by Conservative MP Damian Collins, that Cambridge Analytica did not have Facebook data. The official Hansard extract reads:
Christian Matheson (MP for Chester): “Have you ever passed any user information over to Cambridge Analytica or any of its associated companies?”
Simon Milner: “No.”
Matheson: “But they do hold a large chunk of Facebook’s user data, don’t they?”
Milner: “No. They may have lots of data, but it will not be Facebook user data. It may be data about people who are on Facebook that they have gathered themselves, but it is not data that we have provided.”
5. Conform mai multor surse, Cambridge Analytica detine datele a 50 milioane de useri Facebook, iar pentru 30 milioane datele sunt complete.
1.7 secunde
joi, martie 8th, 2018Cam atat „sta” un user pe o reclama in feed-ul mobil de la Facebook.
“With transparent viewability data, we learned that the average view time for an ad on a mobile newsfeed is 1.7 seconds – little more than a glance – pushing us to innovate.”
De aici.
