However, the case here is my best argument for people who, when they ask, or I'm telling them about Internet security, respond, "Who would want my data? There's nothing interesting on there." It's never that you're particularly interesting or important to other malicious users, it's that with disregard for the most minimal security precautions, you become a data point in their system. After that, it's a numbers game: among 100 million users, how many have made further bad decisions with their data (predictable usernames / email addresses, simple passwords, etc.). Stuff like this exposes the fundamental flaw in Facebook's security model: you are only as secure as your friends are. kaiden@idkfa.com (kaiden) Indiscernible from Magic Fri, 20 Aug 2010 12:47:35 -0800 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=50&msg_id=213 http://www.idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=50&msg_id=211 Somehow this doesn't bother me very much. If you think it's OK to display your information and then not enact privacy settings, what does that say about you? This guy is a dick, yes, but no more a dick than these 100 million people are oblivious to the implications of the internet. gunner125@idkfa.com (gunner125) Indiscernible from Magic Fri, 20 Aug 2010 10:12:05 -0800 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=50&msg_id=211 http://www.idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=50&msg_id=174 The continuing adventures... From Slashdot, Dislike Button Scam Hits Facebook Users "A message saying 'I just got the Dislike button, so now I can dislike all of your dumb posts lol!!' is spreading rapidly on Facebook, tempting unsuspecting users into believing that they will be able to "dislike" posts as well as "like" them. However, security researchers say that it is just the latest 'survey scam', tricking Facebook users into into giving a rogue Facebook application permission to access their profile, and posting spam messages from their account. The rogue application requires victims to complete an online survey (which makes money for the scammers) before ultimately redirecting to a Firefox browser add-on for a Facebook dislike button developed by FaceMod. "As far as we can tell, FaceMod aren't connected with the scam — their browser add-on is simply being used as bait," says Sophos security blogger Graham Cluley." kaiden@idkfa.com (kaiden) Indiscernible from Magic Mon, 16 Aug 2010 14:30:48 -0800 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=50&msg_id=174 http://www.idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=50&msg_id=139 Today on Slashdot: "Facebook Bug Could Give Spammers Names, Photos" "Facebook is scrambling to fix a bug in its website that could be misused by spammers to harvest user names and photographs. It turns out that if someone enters the e-mail address of a Facebook user along with the wrong password, Facebook returns a special 'Please re-enter your password' page, which includes the Facebook photo and full name of the person associated with the address. A spammer with an e-mail list could write a script that enters the e-mail addresses into Facebook and then logs the real names. This could help make a phishing attack more realistic." kaiden@idkfa.com (kaiden) Indiscernible from Magic Thu, 12 Aug 2010 17:03:56 -0800 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=50&msg_id=139 http://www.idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=50&msg_id=50 From a week or two ago on Slashdot: "100 Million Facebook Pages Leaked on Torrent Site" "A directory containing personal details about more than 100 million Facebook users has surfaced on an Internet file-sharing site. The 2.8GB torrent was compiled by hacker Ron Bowes of Skull Security, who created a web crawler program that harvested data on users contained in Facebook's open access directory, which lists all users who haven't bothered to change their privacy settings to make their pages unavailable to search engines." Only really affects people who aren't paying attention to how their profile is being displayed to public search engines, but still scary given that the guy's immediate action afterwards was to throw up a torrent. kaiden@idkfa.com (kaiden) Indiscernible from Magic Thu, 05 Aug 2010 18:12:01 -0800 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=50&msg_id=50
