Monster of the social network Facebook is charging in California by two consumers who declare that intercepts corporation " substance ... user communications . "

The basis of the complaint of the suitors ' is that the use of Facebook in the "private" expression is ambiguous when applied to their individual internal messaging system .
Campbell, along with Hurley says the company analyzes the confidential messages in order to become aware of the URLs contained therein. The plaintiffs also claim that the business is determine the links as part of the swarm , which is something that has not been disclosed unambiguously to the consumers of their services.
If Facebook button determines one 'Like' on one of these pages then the organization will register itself as a confidential communication "Like" on that website , and increase the Like count to one , thus making a public announcement of a private listing . As point # 5 of the objection says:
Opposing their representations, "private" Facebook post methodically intercepted by the corporation in an attempt to learn the substance of communications users. During the past year, the independent security researchers revealed that Facebook parses content of personal Facebook messages from their consumers for functions not related to facilitation of the transmission of the communication. When a consumer makes up a Facebook message and incorporates a link to a third-party website (a " URL") , the company scans the contents of the note on Facebook, follow the link provided , hunting information and to outline message - correspondent web activity .
The lawsuit alleges that Facebook does this in order to mine information and make changes to it by the exchange of data with third parties such as supporters , vendors , besides the data brokers .
While applicants do recognize the information that Facebook has a policy of using the information it reveals how the company obtains information that consumers interact with the site , they fight not build your phrasing clear that Facebook is scanned " , mines, and manipulates the content of private messages from users ... live odds with the guarantees it offers to its users regarding the detention and control to expect . "
As part of his estate to the plaintiffs are seeking compensation of $ 100 for each day of violation or $ 10,000 per class member or offal of any kind associated $ 5,000 , or three times the actual amount of damages , whichever is greater consequence , in addition to the cost of their officially permitted fees.
We previously wrote about the topic of messages confidential explore Facebook in October 2012 . At the point in time , company said
Absolutely no confidential information was discovered and Facebook does not automatically like any Facebook pages on behalf of a consumer.
A lot of web sites that use Facebook 'Like ', ' Share ' buttons or ' Share' also carry a token to them later . This counter is reproduced the figure of times people have broken these buttons so many times divided populace link to the page on Facebook . When the count above is increased by the use of more shares personal messages, no user data and settings of confidentiality of the substance are exchanged are not affected . Mutual links through messages have no effect on the calculation as in the pages of Facebook .
