(8 years ago)The giant social network, Facebook, has asked the largest American banks to give them detailed information about its users' finances, including transaction cards, bank balances. This request comes as a part of help that is trying to give Facebook to its users and as a form of collaboration between the network [...]
This comes also as a Facebook attempt to control the privacy of users, especially in the wake of the Cambridge Analytica scandal, where the company is accused of interfering with more than 87 million accounts of its users without their permission.
One of the largest American banks has reportedly withdrawn from such talks with Facebook, due to concerns that this is a direct intervention with users, writes the Wall Street Journal, broadcast Periscopi.
Facebook has argued his request saying that user bank information will not be used on advertising issues and that it will not share third parties.
We will not use the data we receive from banks for advertising companies, says Elizabeth Diana, Facebook spokeswoman.
Otherwise, banks are facing tremendous pressure to share information with online platforms and considered extremely private to their clients. So far, this information has been shared mainly for business purposes, advertising. On the other hand, banks also try to make more clients digitally./Periscopi/
