Privacy is the primary goal of Facebook in the future (Part 2)

  1. Reduce time of the message

Snapchat is a pioneer in using self-destruct messages, and soon Facebook took advantage of this idea. The company can further develop this idea in the future, the content not only automatically disappears after a certain period of time, but users can also delete them more easily if desired.

  1. Safety

The Internet is not a really safe place, especially for children or sensitive people. So after all, adding encryption and reducing the lifetime of the data, though, they are specific and obvious steps that Facebook can take, but this makes Facebook safe.

The company can start by reducing negative interactions online (such as stoning, etc.) by adding tools to help users prevent people from targeting them. Reducing the lifetime of the content also helps in part.

There are clear benefits for both users and Facebook when this ecosystem becomes secure. Finally, if users feel that Facebook is safe, they will return and continue to use it more often.

  1. Link products

Earlier this year, Mark Zuckerberg described a world where you can text a person on Messenger and the recipient can receive messages through Instagram. This shows that Facebook wants to link all their products. The fact that messaging applications can work together plays a big role in this process.

Suppose you have a Facebook account, post photos on Instagram, message your friends on WhatsApp. If these applications link, you will not have to switch to reply to someone’s specific message on a given application. However, this plan is still quite vague.

  1. Database security

The encrypted data can still be hacked, but the goal is to ensure that the physical data is as secure as possible. With Facebook, this means being careful about where to store data. For example, Facebook cannot store data in countries where human rights policies have not developed enough or there is no freedom of speech.

This is really hard, not to mention that countries always have policy changes, so it will affect Facebook’s data center.

Privacy is the primary goal of Facebook in the future (Part 1)

Mark Zuckerberg made a statement during the Facebook F8 Conference 2019 emphasized that  privacy is the future. But in the past, when it came to privacy, Facebook really didn’t do well. So the company needs to go through a very long way to regain the trust of users.

Promoting privacy requires a great effort on Facebook and it seems impossible to do it one night. Not only that, Facebook emphasized that privacy is not only in the browser but also in Messenger, Instagram, Oculus and WhatsApp.

In other words, Facebook not only makes the browser more private, but also makes the message more private. In a speech at F8 2019, Mark presented six core details of this plan.

  1. Private interaction

Sometimes, you just want to keep interacting with friends and family and don’t want to share everything publicly. With the new Facebook, users can control sharing more private with one or more people. Private interactions are part of coding.

  1. Encryption

When it comes to texting, End-to-end encryption is very popular. This encoding has also appeared in WhatsApp application. However WhatsApp is not the only messaging service of Facebook, so if Facebook wants users to be able to text via any application to anyone, then adding End-to-end encryption to Messenger and Instagram Direct is very important.

Encrypting activities in other Facebook products is equally important. Information like the websites you visit, your location when using Facebook, … all should be encrypted.

Basically, encryption will ensure that no one can see the activities you want to keep private (including Facebook), except you. Currently, Facebook can see all the user activity performed in the company’s services, but once it has been coded, this will change.

Encryption is the only way to ensure that users do not need to worry about messages or other data on their phones being monitored by Facebook or a third party.

Apple was sued for using non-standard materials, causing iPhone 7 to fail

The court in Illinois (USA) has just received a lawsuit against Apple, claiming that the company already knows but still uses “non-standard materials”, causing the audio controller on iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus to be broken during use.

Accordingly, the three plaintiffs said their iPhone 7 had “audio IC defects”, together with the signs showing that the hardware error was similar to the “loop disease” bug that was discovered on a large number of iPhone 7 and 7 Plus in 2018.

In the file, the plaintiffs said they had seen the speaker button turned gray when making a call, losing the ability to order Siri, the Voice Memos application was not working, the fidelity of the microphone was reduced and many other audio problems. The devices sticking to this bug were sold by Apple in early 2017 to the end of 2018.

The main cause of loop disease on iPhone 7 is that the phone has an inadequate design, the aluminum frame is made from “non-standard material” which causes the body to bend properly  at the placement of the sound IC on board. Over time, the circuit connected to the audio chip gradually loosened and caused a series of related problems.

According to the motherboard magazine report in 2018, independent technicians can overcome the problem by removing the audio chip and welding a small piece of wire between it and the circuit board. The lawsuit acknowledges that the only remedy is to use an extra piece of solder to help the audio IC contact the circuit board, even if the case is curled up.

Apple has faced many similar lawsuits in the past, especially the mass-induced error on iPhone 6 when the weld between the control chip and the circuit board is also loose because the case is easily bent. In Apple’s internal repair document, the company acknowledged the audio problem on iPhone 7 but refused a free warranty.
