Facebook announced yesterday a change in relation to how their personal data is available. The post published by industry social network responsible for the privacy says that from now on users can download more of their personal information they publish. Originally established in 2010, the new release of data now has 39 categories and among them are photo albums, public posts, events, notes, and messages sent to your friends list.
All categories of information that Facebook owns your users' social network has provided only some of them gradually. The new version of the history file (available in the account settings) includes previous names, friend requests and the IP address of where the user may have logged into the service. The post also says that "new categories should be available" soon.
Probably because they are preparing for an IPO scheduled for the month of May, the measure should at least soften the mood though, did not please as much as expected. Currently, 40,000 European users have requested a complete copy of all data compiled by the network. According to a privacy law of the European Union the company has 40 days to fill orders.
The best known case is that of the German law student Max Schrems, who succeeded in obtaining justice entitled to recover all your data. He said Facebook had records of all its geographical relocations and a host of other information that he had even deleted his profile.
