Facebook has released a chat room app called “Rooms”, this so called anonymous chat room/forum software is touted as the solution for people wanting privacy when talking online. This is being done in an effort to steer people that don’t use Facebook because they sell /steal and giveaway peoples personal information to the NSA and others . Also, let’s not forget they also conduct psychological tests on their users (1).
Like Facebook suddenly cares about privacy and anonymity!
No doubt at first people are going to jump on this software thinking they can talk freely like it is 1999 again. I guess in time we will see when the cops turn up somewhere because of intercepted private chats that threaten national security. The idea that an evil corporation like Facebook wants anonymity for users is a joke.
Remember this company founded by Mark Zuckerberg that said “The days of you having a different image for your work friends or co-workers and for the other people you know are probably coming to an end pretty quickly, Having two identities for yourself is an example of a lack of integrity.” (2)
It’s no secret that Facebook and the NSA are buddies exchanging ideas and information, and no doubt looking at the source code for this new app it will reveal even more about how it really does record your identity and what is sent back to the NSA. (3)
It will be easy for Facebook and the NSA to work out who is using this “Rooms” app, all they have to do is match up the persons facebook login ip with the IP of the posting in Rooms, and there are way more ways they can do it other than IP address obviously. Warn the people you care about to stay clear of this app.
