    Anyone who believes their information on facebook is secure has to be stupid. While the average person wouldn't matter. There are plenty of important people that will be targeted for information from facebook. Business thrives off information for its war on winning influence to get those deals, or to find out info on what rivals companies are making for products.

    For example: AMD would surely love to find out a Nvidia engineers personal life, then find a way to perhaps send a agent to that person and befriend him. In the future, perhaps find out crucial information about their technology. This type of stuff use to be exclusive to spies in the 80's Cold War, but now with modern practically, manipulation is used day by day in business.

    Maybe not AMD or Nvidia, but that was a example, we're talking millions of dollars at stake for some companies that depend on their next product line to make or break companies. This type of stuff does happen, you think hackers are not a high demand skill?

    Perhaps Zuckerberg and facebook don't care about protecting security because they have business interests to allow other companies or people to take whatever information they want out of facebook. They may not give users information from facebook to anyone, but they surely are not preventing hackers from getting info out of their system.

    It always amazes me the amount of info people store on Facebook. Mobile numbers, address etc. No wonder there is so many hackers about these days.

    I quote from the article:

    ".....He reported the vulnerability through Facebook's security feedback page, which offered a minimum reward of $500 for each real security bug report."

    $500? Come on you cheap b*asterds. Multi-Multi-Multi Billion fortune Company and you give just $500 to someone who in the end make your money machine, even better?

    A minimum of $5000 should be offered and you will see how many security and other faults/bug will be discovered.

    Then maybe, only maybe, Facebook will be much more secure.

    Governments must love Facebook. All they need to do is type a name and up pops the persons picture.

    LOL! But I guess smart crooks delete their accounts if ever made or make fake ones.. As for the dump ones.. Well they are the ones get caught first obviously... :D

    Also I quote a piece from an article on another website:

    "Facebook usually offers bounties for bug reports like this – $20,000 or more per bug, and in total the social network has paid over $1M"

    It seems I rushed to early to bash the social network... They do indeed give a sizable reward and actually that's pretty neat. Good for them.

    At least they are taking care of their money-well. And "well" as in the structure btw.. :p
