Facebook launches “Data Abuse Bounty” program to reward users for reporting “data abuse” on its platform. Program is first of its kind in the industry, wherein the focus is on the misuse of its users’ data by app developers. Program will reward a sum of money to anyone who reports valid events of data collection that violate Facebook’s terms of service. Facebook will shut down the offending app and take legal action against the company selling or buying the data, if necessary, the social media giant says.
