Facebook founder Zuckerberg wants to take care of in the future to the protection of privacy. Private messages will soon be encrypted to be sent. Critics are skeptical.
The tech world in Silicon Valley the eyes: Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg puzzled with his Blog-rubbing Post for the surprise. “Is he really serious?” many of the comments are. The former chief of security of Facebook Alex Stamos, who left the company in March of last year in the dispute, writing on Twitter: “Such an announcement I hadn’t expected really, I wish Zuckerberg would have written two years ago.”
“We need to measure Facebook by his deeds,” warns against Kurt Opsahl of the privacy organization Electronic Frontier Foundation in San Francisco. “The devil is in the Detail. We need to look at the implementation. If you really want our trust, then you need to be transparent in terms of business model. You need to build trust through Action.”
focus on private messages
In his Blog Post, Zuckerberg announced that the encryption of data in the network would play a key role. Instead of public status messages on Facebook, the focus is to encourage the protection of private, encrypted messages between users or small groups. The content should not be able to even read Facebook.
Among other things, he writes: “When I think about the future of the Internet, I believe that a communication platform that is focused on privacy will be even more important than today’s open platforms.” It sounds like a 180-degree turn. Instead of an open marketplace, it is now the private sitting room, where people can have a protected conversation, after some time, even permanently delete it.
Facebook grew through the eyes of information – now Zuckerberg has announced that the future lay in the privacy of.
Only a sleight of hand?
Zuckerberg is also trying to the skeptic approach. After all, the company has promised in the past few years, transparency and a better protection to its users data. Happens is usually the opposite. In the case of Zuckerberg, it sounds like this: “to be Honest, we currently don’t have a good reputation when it comes to the development of services that protect privacy. We have focused in the past on the tools, the things the public share. However, we have shown again and again that we can continue to develop the services that people really want – for example, Sending private messages.”
The long-winded, 3200 words, existing blog entry can best be summarized like this: status messages on Facebook are less important for the communication of small groups. The Chat services of Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp and Instagram are to be merged according to the will of sugar mountain on a technical platform.
pocket player Trick,my Zuckerberg’s critics. He wanted to cause a possible split-up of his company before. So, if Facebook as a network is less important, the importance of the chat rises, services such as WhatsApp, as a future of advertising looks-funded business model? This answer is still Zuckerberg, as yet, guilty.
