Facebook Spies On Chats For Suspicious Behavior

 

Facebook employees alerted to “improper communication”

Citing the need to watch for potential sex offenders, Facebook is using software that tracks private conversations for suspicious behavior and keywords before alerting Facebook employees who then decide whether to pass the information on to police.

The revelation was divulged during a Reuters interview with the social networking giant’s Chief Security Officer Joe Sullivan.

 

Despite the article acknowledging the fact that Internet-related sex crimes against children are on the decrease, the story cites a barrage of cases where children have been groomed online before revealing that Facebook “users could be unnerved about the extent to which their conversations are reviewed, at least by computer programs.”

 

The software used by Facebook to monitor conversations works by searching “for improper communication” and analyzing “patterns of behavior.”

 

Words or phrases considered vulgar or an attempt to exchange personal information are red flagged and brought to the attention of Facebook employees, who then decide whether the content is worthy of being brought to the attention of law enforcement.

 

Too many messages sent without response also sets off an alarm that characterizes the content as suspicious.

 

The article does not divulge whether or not archives of chat records are stored and for what length of time, but adds that similar software is used by other social networking websites.

 

On its website, Facebook acknowledges that it shares information about users even in the absence of a court order or other legal request.

 

“We may also share information when we have a good faith belief it is necessary to prevent fraud or other illegal activity, to prevent imminent bodily harm, or to protect ourselves and you from people violating our Statement of Rights and Responsibilities. This may include sharing information with other companies, lawyers, courts or other government entities.”

 

Facebook has been caught in a number of privacy controversies in recent years.

 

Back in February, the company angrily denied a report by the Sunday Times which claimed Facebook was secretly reading texts sent by users of its Android app.

 

The U.S. government is actively involved in soliciting information from Facebook. Last month, the State Department issued a procurement request seeking tools that can provide “deep analysis of topics, conversations, networks, and influencers of the global social web.”

 

Privacy advocates like Wikileaks’ Julian Assange have repeatedly warned that social networks like Facebook and Twitter are little more than huge spying databases used by intelligence agencies to glean personal information.

It's interesting you post that because there was a story yesterday about Facebook making a decision of whether or not to notify people when their pictures have been viewed, and by whom they were viewed by.

 

 

Crazy shit man and there is more to come just right around the corner now with Facebook with this country just in general. I'm also very interested to see what happens in London Olympics, I've been reading about and they talk about all kinds of things that will happen, might happen an so on.

I highly doubt anything will happen. I remember all the talk about how there would be bombings and riots during the 2010 World Cup in Africa, and everything wound up going smoothly. From my point of view, the only time terrorism is a serious threat is when no one expects it and has their guard down.

Facebook is also asking me how close I am with certain people. Seems like theyre trying to find out as much information as possible from everybody now. They have been suspicious for a while now.

 

Of course they want to know everything about us.

Ah what a shame, but I care for my fellow human brothers and sisters so I have to show it. Even if they don't care, we need to stray ourselves from this materialistic life. Because we are far better then this right now we cannot live our lives every morning waking up doing the same old crap just getting closer to death. There is more to life then materialism.
