Millions Exposed by Facebook Data Glitch
Personal details of about six million people have been inadvertently exposed by a bug in Facebook’s data archive.
The bug meant email and telephone numbers were accidentally shared with people who would not otherwise have had access to the information.
So far, there was no evidence the data exposed was being exploited for malicious ends, said Facebook.
It said it was “upset and embarrassed” by the bug, which was found by a programmer outside the company.

@Cha Cha Cha, thank you for noticing me. If we had two people like you in Zambia, this aromatic aldehyde wouldn’t have spread the way it has. We need people like you to head the Zambia Bureau of Standards.
