Facebook Fined $9 Million in Canada Over “False”” Privacy Claims”

Canadas Competition Bureau says Facebook mishandled user information by giving the impression users could control who could see and access their personal information when using privacy features. Facebook also allegedly let third parties, including advertisers and developers, access personal information of users friends by connecting to other apps via the social network. Despite allegedly scrapping this practice years ago, the Bureau says it continued into 2018 with some companies doing business with Facebook. Facebook said it did not agree with the findings of the investigation, but wanted to enter a consent agreement so the matter could be resolved quickly.”]
