Title: Android phone users, Facebook was tracking your calls and texts
Post by: Phebz on March 26, 2018, 02:40:26 AM
When you download Facebook’s app, it asks for access to your phone contacts, which it uses for its friend-recommendation algorithm. It now makes clear that it wants access to call logs and SMS logs as well, but in the past, Android users may have given Facebook access to this data unknowingly, as a result of the way Android dealt with asking permission for call logs.
