I was at a party once with Facebook employees and they were telling stories about how they would spy on who visited who's profiles. They thought it was so funny, they could "tell" who had a crush on who. I deleted my account as soon as I got home. Vile company.

> found Meta to have inadvertently stored certain passwords of social media users on its internal systems without encryption, and fined it €91m (£75m) WTF? I thought that on 2010 already people were diligent enough to avoid even sending the password and instead just hashed it locally before even sending it.
