Now It’s Getting Weird: New Facebook App Tracks Your Location – Even When It’s Turned Off
06 Feb 2013 by Jasmine Stone in Facebook, Social, Tech/Sci
Thanks to Mark Creeperberg and Facebook, you can now find your friends who are in the same area as you, even if their Facebook app is closed. Which is obviously a red flag for privacy. Facebook already allows you to “check in”, logging the places you’ve visited in a viewable GPS map format.
According to a Bloomberg report, the app is set to launch in March and could prove profitable for Facebook as they advertise based on the location their users visit.
Long story short – it’s time to cull anyone with even mildly creepy tendencies from your Facebook friend list.
App, app, hooray.
