How to check if your Facebook data has been leaked or not

http://id.safenetvoice.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/FacebookData-800x500.jpg

Facebook has launched a page that allows you to check whether your data has come into the hands of Cambridge Analytica.

On [This page](https://www.facebook.com/help/1873665312923476?helpref=search&sr=1&query=cambridge%20analytica&locale=en_GB)you see the heading 'Is my information shared?'. Below that is the message whether your private information was leaked to Cambridge Analytica without your knowledge.

In total, this involves 87 million users whose data was sent to the British data company. Most of them live in the United States, but there are also one million users in the Philippines, Indonesia and Great Britain whose data has been leaked.

# Data Leaked via an app

The stolen data was collected on Facebook by an app called 'This is Your Digital Life'. That personality test not only read the data of the user who did the test, but also of his or her Facebook friends.

A researcher paid 270,000 people to do the test and sold the data to Cambridge Analytica. That company collected the data and made voter profiles with it, which were used, among other things, by Donald Trump's election campaign.

Are you ready with the social network after the Facebook scandal? That way you get a life without Facebook.

Thank you @cyberwarrior for this information. I tried to avoid sharing personal information with facebook but I am not sure how much facebook knows about me. I think its' app can read our phone call and contact numbers because it suggests me some user accounts as friends whose contact numbers I added temporarily many years ago. It means it can also remember our personal information for very long time.

This is a great post and one wonders had Zuckerberg not been sprung, would any changes to FB privacy have been made?

Interesting post @cyberwarrior the saga behind the leaked date of some facebook is not dying down and I personally wish it should be an opportunity for steemit to grow but majority of users are not aware of the data leaking issue any and that is sad. Some people are just happy to be on facebook without minding what is happening behind the scenes and its implications

40% people use Facebook just for fun and they are addicted to it. And those people don't care whether their data is selling to another planet or not. We can't do anything about it.
