Facebook continues to concatenate numerous scandals at the security level and above all privacy, as if the Cambridge Analytica it would have been littleIt now turns out that Facebook could have put all its users' passwords at risk by storing them through totally insecure means. In short, and in short, it is possible that Facebook employees and former employees have had access to your password from the social network. This would not be a problem unless you are using a password that you also use on other websites beyond the social network, such as your email or even access to your banking portal.
As reported by the company itself Mark Zuckerberg:
As part of security tests carried out in January, we found that some of our users' passwords have been stored in plain text on our internal data storage systems. This caught our attention because our login systems are made to be bug proof, making passwords unreadable. We have quickly fixed these problems and will take the precaution of alerting all those whose password has been compromised for these reasons.
"What a chorprecha!" As the Spanish comedian David Broncano would say, Facebook has once again screwed up the depths of the web with our privacy and security. That is why whether you are or are not on the list of those users who have suffered this "error" from the great social network, which we remember also owns companies such as WhatsApp and Instagram, is a good time to proceed to change our password, or ... why not? Delete our account from this social network completely and earn a little in health, online safety and a few more things.
