Facebook Exposes Users to Identity Theft, Lawsuit Claims
The social media Web site Facebook has added new privacy protection controls for third party applications, but a class-action lawsuit has been filed claiming those safety precautions do not protect against identity theft. The lawsuit claims that the new features “are difficult to use” and are not “designed to explain how a user can best protect his information and data.” The lawsuit claims that the Web site has tricked users into exposing personal items to get more traffic to the site.
