I’m just surprised that CNN reported this at all.

Facebook Bug Accesses iPhone’s Camera While User Scrolls Through News Feed
CNN | 11/12/2019 | Allen Kim

Facebook says a bug that inadvertently accesses a user’s iPhone camera while they’re scrolling through the News Feed will be fixed sometime today.

The bug, which was discovered by Joshua Maddux, owner of web design firm 95Visual, appears to be exclusive to iOS and does not affect Android devices.

Maddux took to Twitter to report his discovery, where he posted a video that showed his camera, pointing forward, was running in the background while he was scrolling Facebook.

“I thought I had opened the camera by accident,” Maddux wrote in an email to CNN of the discovery. “Then, on Saturday evening as I closed out a video on Facebook saw the camera again on the left side.”

Jerry Gamblin, principal security engineer at Kenna Security, was able to replicate the bug and told CNN “there is no indication that the data actually is transmitted to Facebook.”

Reached for comment, Facebook confirmed the bug was “inadvertently introduced” and promised a fix was in the works.

. . .

A security firm also discovered that hundreds of millions of Facebook records were left exposed on Amazon cloud servers earlier this year.

Eerily similar to how Hillary inadvertently had a home-based email server with tens of thousands of classified documents on it!

Well, no reasonable prosecutor would indict; so this Facebook thing must fall under the same heading: Demmunity.

And Press-de-digitation.
