Facebook is in the middle of a court case involving using data in private messages to serve ads and even selling this data to marketers -
The company that allegedly caught them, used fake/temp urls and monitored them and located Facebook as a perp.
What does that mean for us? Well, if anyone is blackhatting fb you must be aware of monitoring from 3rd party organisations, and it isnt only fb.
An Exert -
”Facebook was one of the Web Services that was caught scanning URLs despite such activity remaining undisclosed to the user,” according to the complaint.
This could include software scraping etc, not just PM's
