facebook1Ron Bowles, an online security consultant has used a simple piece of code to collect information from the popular internet site Facebook. The code has collected the URL of all searchable Facebook profiles along with unique IDs and names. The list contains the information of over 100 million Facebook users – that’s a fifth of Facebook’s total amount of users.

This has once again given rise to the privacy and security debate surrounding Facebook. However, Facebook has hit back at critics saying that the data that has been released isn’t actually private data. One thing’s for sure though – people are downloading the list of URLs faster than you can imagine.
