Issue 4, May 2010

Last month, Facebook introduced yet another changes in their privacy setting, this time they allowed applications and websites to have an access to general information of the user. We have been seeing a series of changes in facebook pipeline since long and whole timeline was also published by Electronic Frontier Foundation which can be seen at http://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2010/04/facebook-timeline/.

In this issue we will be covering this important policy and see how a normal user can be safe. What are the changes expected by users in their privacy setting to keep the data safe. Along with this, we have our regular sections under which we are looking at a very new tool released in ClubHack2009 by our friend Lavakumar called “Imposter”. Poster of the month is again on facebook privacy.
