Facebook privacy hole 'lets you see where strangers plan to go'
Facebook's new system for connecting together the web seems to have a serious privacy hole, a web developer has discovered.
Some people report that they are able to see the public "events" that Facebook users have said they will attend – even if they person is not a "friend" on the social network.
The discovery was made by Ka-Ping Yee, a software engineer for the charitable arm of Google, who was trying out the search query system known as the "Graph API" released by Facebook last Friday. In some cases – though not all – it will let you see the public events that people have said they will attend, or have attended.
