Facebook Messenger will allow you to delete the sent messages

The rush, the reflections in hot ... there are many situations in which, once pressed the button 'send', we regret and we wish we had never done it. Facebook, in the eye of the hurricane for its controversial issues on privacy, is the absolute leader in what concerns the messaging if we add the texts sent through WhatsApp, Messenger and the newcomer, Instagram Direct. This leadership and the experience of the years allow you to know your users well and in this sense, being able to undo a shipment has always been a demand that finally reaches the massive Messenger platform.

The integrated messaging app on Facebook is used monthly by more than 1,300 million users each time (in the United States it is especially popular) and from now on it allows the user to regret sending a message. The operation, as Zuckerberg's firm explains in his blog, is simple: just keep your finger pressed on the message in question and we will see the "Delete" option, and then select if we only want to delete the message in our chat or "to all the world"; Of course, this decision must be taken before ten minutes, after which, elimination will not be possible.

Undo the shipments will also be possible in groups and as happens in WhatsApp , will be trace of our decision to appear in the recipient's chat the text "deleted message" that will give us.

However, Facebook warns that messages with violent content, insults, threats or any other content that does not respect the rules of the community, may be reported even if they have been deleted by the sender. That is to say, if someone threatens us by Messenger and subsequently deletes that threat, the recipient may send said message (even if deleted) to Facebook so that the appropriate measures are taken.

This new feature will gradually appear to all iOS and Android users who have the latest version of the application, and with it, Facebook wants to bring a little more peace of mind in the conversations knowing that if we make a mistake, we will have a small margin for repentance

Hackers hacked 29 million facebook users' data, Facebook confirms the security breach

The company has ensured that it will send messages to those affected in the coming days, with the aim of notifying them of what type of data the hackers have accessed in the massive attack.

Facebook has reported that a group of hackers have stolen data from a total of 29 million users of its platform, not 50 million, as initially assured the company two weeks ago. The hackers used a computer program that was transferred from one profile to another through user contacts and the option to 'see how' of their perles.

The company has ensured that it will send messages to those affected in the coming days, with the aim of notifying them of what type of data the hackers have accessed in the massive attack.

The breach in the security of the social network left millions of users exposed to possible Internet fraud. Many sectors fear that this type of computer attacks will end up discouraging users of social networks to continue using a service whose privacy, moderation and security practices have been questioned after a series of scandals, according to experts in cybersecurity and financial analysts.

Those responsible for the attack obtained details of profiles such as dates of birth, employers, educational history, religious preference, types of devices used, pages followed, recent searches and location records of 14 million users. For the other 15 million, it was restricted to name and contact details.

Facebook has established that the number of users affected has been much lower than its original estimate, after reviewing the activity in the accounts that could have been affected. The vice president of Facebook, Guy Rosen, has stated that the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has asked the company to limit the descriptions of the attackers because they have already launched an investigation into what happened.

The company has ensured that it was determined whether the hackers took actions other than stealing data, such as publishing from the accounts. As they have added, no

They stole personal messages or financial data and did not use their access to the accounts of the users of other websites.

The internal investigation, which is still in an "early phase", has revealed that the attackers exploited a vulnerability in the Facebook web code that affected the 'see how' option, which allows users to check the form in the that other users see their Facebook profiles.

This weakness allowed attackers to steal some access identifiers that they could use to enter user accounts without the need to enter the password. On the other hand, the social network has taken the decision to eliminate the option "see how" while continuing the investigation.
