Delete Facebook account or Change your password

Do you think Facebook is secure? Do you think that  your fb passwords are kept secret? The answer is a big NO. Recently Facebook is exposed for keeping the passwords of  billions of its  users as 'plain text'. 

Facebook itself  agreed that the fb passwords of all its users was saved in plain text since 2012. The affected users have been requested  by facebook to change their passwords as soon as possible. 

Facebook has leaked the password of  its billions of ussers internally. The user's password were stored as plain text or human readable text  in the facebook records. 

Krebs on Security () said that facebook is doing this shit from many years(since 2012). Most probably there is a possibilty that all the 20000 facebook employees could have access to the passwords.  Normally the passwords are protected with encryption. 

Facebook has claimed that their company was saving the passwords as plain text. Around 200 to 600 million users have been affected due to this. The facebook has sent notification to the affected users so that they can change their passwords. Facebook assured that this bug has been removed now. 

For your information, i would like to inform you that this bug was first detected by the Krebs on  security. Then facebook comes with a post (Keeping Password Secure) on its blog. In this post fb has clearly stated that they were storing the user's password in plain text(human readable). 

Facebook stated that there are no proofs which claims the misuse of user's passwords inside and outside the office campus.  So there is no need for every user to change the password.  FB said that millions of facebook lite users and other fb users are affected due to this bug. Also more than 10k instagram followers are also affected. 

According to Krebs on Security around 200 to 600 million facebook user's passwords were saved as plain text. The most dangerous thing is that these plain text passwords could be searched by the 20,000 officials. 

After Cambridge Analytica Data Scandal, several questions have started raising  on the privacy of facebook users.
