RE: Rogue Facebook apps steal log-in data, send spam

Computer_User_1024 20th Aug 2009

I myself try to be fairly careful with sites like Facebook. I in fact do not like visiting the facebook home page unless I manually type in HTTPS://www.facebook.com myself and I then verify the certificate details before entering my password information into the web page.

For that matter, it would make me feel much better if ZDNet had encrypted or https: log in pages for their accounts. I would never have created my Face Book account if they did not have a secure way of logging in, as there is too much personal information that Face Book requests in a registration process. Although it is not widely known that it exists, one can use the https: protocol to access the facebook log in page.
