Facebook says 5,000 app developers got user data after cutoff date
A Facebook privacy mechanism blocks apps from receiving user data if users didn’t use an app for 90 days. Facebook said 5,000 apps continued to receive user data regardless.
The incident is related to a security control that Facebook added to its systems following the Cambridge Analytica scandal of early 2018.
