US Senators question Facebook about security breaches in Iran
Senators Mark Warner and Marco Rubio have written a letter to Facebook’s owner, Mark Zuckerberg, and referred to documents that indicate the company is aware of developers in China, Iran, and Russia accessing user data.
They have expressed serious concerns that these accesses pose a risk of foreign intelligence agencies or espionage breaches.
The documents mentioned by Senators Warner and Rubio came to light during a legal dispute in California in 2018. In their letter, they mention that one of the internal documents from Facebook states that around 90,000 developers in China had access to user profile information, photos, and private messages, even though Facebook had no operations in China.
