Facebook Messenger App Review

 , , , , , , , ,      No comments   

Facebook Messenger app is a messaging app for the popular social media, Facebook. It was established by the very same group who produced among my most utilized messaging apps, Beluga which I use rather regularly. If you have utilized Beluga before, Facebook Messenger will be rather familiar as they share a fair bit in typical with each other. Facebook Messenger permits you to send out and get messages with your good Facebook friends in whole time, immediately whether it be with somebody who is likewise utilizing the app or a good friend who is using Messenger through the Facebook site. You can even talk with users through SMS if they have that alternative allowed.

Facebook Messenger App Review
The app permits you to message anybody you are friends with on Facebook. All you have to do is click the brand-new message button and type the name of the contact you wish to compose to. Messages can consist of original text, pictures, as well as area info. You can even begin a group message among your good friends where anybody consisted of in the group can address back and see exactly what everybody else is composing. All messages are sent out and gotten immediately and can be regarded in the Facebook Messenger app or on the Facebook site using chat window.

Exactly what the app does not have is a friend list that reveals who is online at any provided time. In truth, there isn't a friend list at all in the conventional sense. It is presumed that you understand who your Facebook buddies currently are and if you now speak with somebody frequently on Facebook, you ought to know their names all right to type them in just.

Facebook Messenger isn't your typical messaging app. In truth, those of you who are drawn to using apps like GOAL, Yahoo, or other IM app might discover Facebook Messenger a bit disconcerting because of one essential thing, an absence of a pal list that reveals who might be online. However, it is my viewpoint that Facebook purposefully made the app like that since they desire you to presume that everybody is online. I suggest if you are a heavy Facebook user, you need to currently understand which buddies are typically on all the time and which kind friends have likewise downloaded the Facebook Messenger app.

Even if they do not have the app, many people have the regular Facebook app set up and given that Facebook Messenger is likewise linked with messages on the website, the Facebook app will turn up a notice that you have a message waiting. Anyways, if they do not address back, it implies they do not wish to message back or cannot. Exactly what's the distinction in between that and somebody not responding to back your SMS? None.

Sears Canada shuts down Facebook comments amid flood of angry messages
After getting flooded with angry comments about its treatment of laid-off workers, and by calls for a boycott, Sears Canada is no longer allowing public posts on its Facebook site.

The retailer also appears to be in the process of removing all current comments.

When CBC News first checked out Sears' Facebook page on Wednesday afternoon, we could still view posts from early July such as: "Still no severance pay for your employees huh, you know Canadians won't stand for that" and "Joining the boycott of Sears Canada."

However, a couple of hours later, those posts too disappeared.

On Sunday, CBC News noted that Sears Canada's Facebook page was riddled with comments from Canadians protesting what was happening to its employees.

The retailer announced last month that, as part of a court-supervised restructuring process, it's closing 59 of its 255 stores and laying off 2,900 workers — none of whom will get severance pay.

Sears has also requested court permission to stop topping up the underfunded retiree pension plan. The retailer recently agreed to postpone that matter until Sept. 30.

Many Canadians have voiced their anger on Sears' Facebook site and said they will no longer shop at its department stores, adding to what one retail analyst called a "PR nightmare."

"I will not spend one red cent in your store… no severance, no sale," one person posted.
Private messaging

Most of the bitter comments are now gone from the site, but according to Sears Canada, they were not what motivated it to prevent people from making public posts.

Sears says it has instead decided to focus on communicating with Canadians via Facebook's private messaging option where only the retailer can view and respond to comments.

"In order to listen and hear from our customers most effectively, we're opening Facebook Messaging to our customers and all Canadians with inquires," Sears said on its site.

"We will, for the time being, close comments on our [public] feed to concentrate on responding to messenger inquiries."

The retailer also encouraged people to continue with their comments — using the private messaging format.

"We are focused on making Sears Canada a successful business, and so much of that relies on your feedback," it stated.
'Insult to injury'

But the new messaging policy may only serve to further agitate some Canadians.

"It just adds insult to injury," says Tracy Brown in Stratford, Ont. She informed Sears last week on Facebook she'll no longer shop at the retailer, "in light of your decision to cheat your faithful employees."

On hearing that Sears is removing comments and shutting down public posts, Brown finds herself even more upset.

"Makes me angry if they took my comment down," she says. "It wasn't a rude comment. It was just me stating my opinion."

Sears Canada told CBC News that deep financial troubles left it with no choice but to seek court protection from its creditors while it restructures.

As part of the court proceedings, the company said it's not able to make payments to a number of stakeholders, including laid-off workers owed severance.

What Is The Meaning Of Facebook

The meaning of the word Facebook

Yes, "book of faces" or "book of photos of faces."

Most questions about the meaning of brand name words don't have a definite answer. Brand names are invented words, so they could mean anything.

In the case of Facebook, however, there is an answer. A "facebook" was originally something like a "yearbook" for new students -- an internally published, printed collection of photos of enrolled college students from a particular school, year, dormitory, or fraternity / sorority, allowing students to share contact information and put names to faces (and vice versa). Some schools called them "lookbooks" or "photo directories." These directories were originally printed on paper and later began to be put online.

Are you ready? This is all the data Facebook and Google have on you
Want to freak yourself out? I’m going to show just how much of your information the likes of Facebook and Google store about you without you even realising it.
Google knows where you’ve been

Google stores your location (if you have location tracking turned on) every time you turn on your phone. You can see a timeline of where you’ve been from the very first day you started using Google on your phone.

Google knows everything you’ve ever searched – and deleted

Google stores search history across all your devices. That can mean that, even if you delete your search history and phone history on one device, it may still have data saved from other devices.

The data Google has on you can fill millions of Word documents

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 3m Word documents.

Facebook has reams and reams of data on you, too

Facebook offers a similar option to download all your information. Mine was roughly 600MB, which is roughly 400,000 Word documents.

This includes every message you’ve ever sent or been sent, every file you’ve ever sent or been sent, all the contacts in your phone, and all the audio messages you’ve ever sent or been sent.

When I downloaded a copy of my Facebook data last week, I didn’t expect to see much. My profile is sparse, I rarely post anything on the site, and I seldom click on ads. (I’m what some call a Facebook “lurker.”)

But when I opened my file, it was like opening Pandora’s box.

With a few clicks, I learned that about 500 advertisers — many that I had never heard of, like Bad Dad, a motorcycle parts store, and Space Jesus, an electronica band — had my contact information, which could include my email address, phone number and full name. Facebook also had my entire phone book, including the number to ring my apartment buzzer. The social network had even kept a permanent record of the roughly 100 people I had deleted from my friends list over the last 14 years, including my exes.

There was so much that Facebook knew about me — more than I wanted to know. But after looking at the totality of what the Silicon Valley company had obtained about yours truly, I decided to try to better understand how and why my data was collected and stored. I also sought to find out how much of my data could be removed.

How Facebook collects and treats personal information was central this week when Mark Zuckerberg, the company’s chief executive, answered questions in Congress about data privacy and his responsibilities to users. During his testimony, Mr. Zuckerberg repeatedly said Facebook has a tool for downloading your data that “allows people to see and take out all the information they’ve put into Facebook.” (Those who want to download their own Facebook data can use this link.)

But that’s an overstatement. Most basic information, like my birthday, could not be deleted. More important, the pieces of data that I found objectionable, like the record of people I had unfriended, could not be removed from Facebook, either.

“They don’t delete anything, and that’s a general policy,” said Gabriel Weinberg, the founder of DuckDuckGo, which offers internet privacy tools. He added that data was kept around to eventually help brands serve targeted ads.

Beth Gautier, a Facebook spokeswoman, put it this way: “When you delete something, we remove it so it’s not visible or accessible on Facebook.” She added: “You can also delete your account whenever you want. It may take up to 90 days to delete all backups of data on our servers.”

Digging through your Facebook files is an exercise I highly recommend if you care about how your personal information is stored and used. Here’s what I learned.

How Facebook Lets Brands and Politicians Target You

A history of the steps the company took to become an advertising giant.April 11, 2018

Facebook Retains More Data Than We Think

When you download a copy of your Facebook data, you will see a folder containing multiple subfolders and files. The most important one is the “index” file, which is essentially a raw data set of your Facebook account, where you can click through your profile, friends list, timeline and messages, among other features.

One surprising part of my index file was a section called Contact Info. This contained the 764 names and phone numbers of everyone in my iPhone’s address book. Upon closer inspection, it turned out that Facebook had stored my entire phone book because I had uploaded it when setting up Facebook’s messaging app, Messenger.

This was unsettling. I had hoped Messenger would use my contacts list to find others who were also using the app so that I could connect with them easily — and hold on to the relevant contact information only for the people who were on Messenger. Yet Facebook kept the entire list, including the phone numbers for my car mechanic, my apartment door buzzer and a pizzeria.

This felt unnecessary, though Facebook holds on to your phone book partly to keep it synchronized with your contacts list on Messenger and to help find people who newly sign up for the messaging service. I opted to turn off synchronizing and deleted all my phone book entries.

My Facebook data also revealed how little the social network forgets. For instance, in addition to recording the exact date I signed up for Facebook in 2004, there was a record of when I deactivated Facebook in October 2010, only to reactivate it four days later — something I barely remember doing.

Facebook also kept a history of each time I opened Facebook over the last two years, including which device and web browser I used. On some days, it even logged my locations, like when I was at a hospital two years ago or when I visited Tokyo last year.

Facebook keeps a log of this data as a security measure to flag suspicious logins from unknown devices or locations, similar to how banks send a fraud alert when your credit card number is used in a suspicious location. This practice seemed reasonable, so I didn’t try to purge this information.

But what bothered me was the data that I had explicitly deleted but that lingered in plain sight. On my friends list, Facebook had a record of “Removed Friends,” a dossier of the 112 people I had removed along with the date I clicked the “Unfriend” button. Why should Facebook remember the people I’ve cut off from my life?

Facebook’s explanation was dissatisfying. The company said it might use my list of deleted friends so that those people did not appear in my feed with the feature “On This Day,” which resurfaces memories from years past to help people reminisce. I’d rather have the option to delete the list of deleted friends for good.
ImageYour Facebook account keeps a record not only of ads you have clicked on, but also of advertisers that have your contact information, which can also be viewed in your archive.

The Ad Industry Has Eyes Everywhere

What Facebook retained about me isn’t remotely as creepy as the sheer number of advertisers that have my information in their databases. I found this out when I clicked on the Ads section in my Facebook file, which loaded a history of the dozen ads I had clicked on while browsing the social network.

Lower down, there was a section titled “Advertisers with your contact info,” followed by a list of roughly 500 brands, the overwhelming majority of which I had never interacted with. Some brands sounded obscure and sketchy — one was called “Microphone Check,” which turned out to be a radio show. Other brands were more familiar, like Victoria’s Secret Pink, Good Eggs or AARP.

Facebook said unfamiliar advertisers might appear on the list because they might have obtained my contact information from elsewhere, compiled it into a list of people they wanted to target and uploaded that list into Facebook. Brands can upload their customer lists into a tool called Custom Audiences, which helps them find those same people’s Facebook profiles to serve them ads.

Brands can obtain your information in many different ways. Those include:

■ Buying information from a data provider like Acxiom, which has amassed one of the world’s largest commercial databases on consumers. Brands can buy different types of customer data sets from a provider, like contact information for people who belong to a certain demographic, and take that information to Facebook to serve targeted ads, said Michael Priem, chief executive of Modern Impact, an advertising firm in Minneapolis.

Last month, Facebook announced that it was limiting its practice of allowing advertisers to target ads using information from third-party data brokers like Acxiom.

■ Using tracking technologies like web cookies and invisible pixels that load in your web browser to collect information about your browsing activities. There are many different trackers on the web, and Facebook offers 10 different trackers to help brands harvest your information, according to Ghostery, which offers privacy tools that block ads and trackers. The advertisers can take some pieces of data that they have collected with trackers and upload them into the Custom Audiences tool to serve ads to you on Facebook.

■ Getting your information in simpler ways, too. Someone you shared information with could share it with another entity. Your credit card loyalty program, for example, could share your information with a hotel chain, and that hotel chain could serve you ads on Facebook.

The upshot? Even a Facebook lurker, like myself, who has barely clicked on any digital ads can have personal information exposed to an enormous number of advertisers. This was not entirely surprising, but seeing the list of unfamiliar brands with my contact information in my Facebook file was a dose of reality.

I tried to contact some of these advertisers, like Very Important Puppets, a toymaker, to ask them about what they did with my data. They did not respond.
What About Google?

Let’s be clear: Facebook is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to what information tech companies have collected on me.

Knowing this, I also downloaded copies of my Google data with a tool called Google Takeout. The data sets were exponentially larger than my Facebook data. For my personal email account alone, Google’s archive of my data measured eight gigabytes, enough to hold about 2,000 hours of music. By comparison, my Facebook data was about 650 megabytes, the equivalent of about 160 hours of music.

Here was the biggest surprise in what Google collected on me: In a folder labeled Ads, Google kept a history of many news articles I had read, like a Newsweek story about Apple employees walking into glass walls and a New York Times story about the editor of our Modern Love column. I didn’t click on ads for either of these stories, but the search giant logged them because the sites had loaded ads served by Google.

In another folder, labeled Android, Google had a record of apps I had opened on an Android phone since 2015, along with the date and time. This felt like an extraordinary level of detail.

Google did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

On a brighter note, I downloaded an archive of my LinkedIn data. The data set was less than half a megabyte and contained exactly what I had expected: spreadsheets of my LinkedIn contacts and information I had added to my profile.

Yet that offered little solace. Be warned: Once you see the vast amount of data that has been collected about you, you won’t be able to unsee it.
