Welcome to 2017:
Facebook = Blue Snapchat
Whatsapp = Green Snapchat
Instagram = AllPossibleColors Snapchat
Ps: First rant **yayy**12 -
The news:
"Oh no, big tech companies are taking advantage of our information and tracking everything we do. We're too dependent! "
Us:
"Wow this sounds important. *Googles it *"
"Everyone needs to know, *shares on Facebook*"
Wait.....4 -
*Facebook Hackers follow the Rules*
(real story)
TL;DR: sorry, not available, can't do spoilers
One night I was with a group of friends out at a pub. A guy and his girlfriend show up, I didn't know them but they were my friend's friends.
The girl kept bragging the whole time about his boyfriend being a professional programmer, trying to remind it to everybody whenever possible (don't ask me why!).
So, after a while, the discussion moves towards "suspect Facebook activities" and the guy starts saying that he can hack Facebook.
- "What do you mean?", I ask.
- "Hacking into other people's accounts, even with 2 factor authentication. I did it a lot of times"
- "Wait, and they don't notice?"
- "Of course not! ^_^ He's a hacker", the girl replies.
Ok, time to do a coming out.
- "Hey, I'm a developer myself. Can you give me an idea of what you did in technical terms? Did you find a vulnerability? Used a virus? Maybe a keylogger?"
- "No... Uh... Well... The secret is to read the terms of service"
- "What?"
- "Yes... yes it's all in the facebook terms of service..."
- "Uhm, I'm not really sure I'm following. Could you prove it by hacking my Facebook account? I'm giving you the permission".
In less than a minute the discussion flew completely away and they never mentioned computers again.

Anyone who creates a Facebook Libra account and puts money in it and uses it to buy stuff/for transactions should have their fucking voting rights removed and be submitted to a mental health institution.

I'm an experienced developer, in my facebook I liked all the pages about programming languages and developing, but Facebook keeps advertising me "the book to learn how to code in 24 hours" or "the tutorial to build a website without paying a developer" or the one in the image below.
What the fuck facebook? Are you trying to say I'm useless?

So Facebook announced a New Feature which lets you upload nudes which get hashed and on a Blacklist so they can't be uploaded to facebook. And in Order to prevent abuse, a human Reviews the pictures. Genius idea15

So Facebook provided unlimited data access to loads of companies including spotify/microsoft and other big names.
Although there are privacy rules, those companies had deals which excluded them from these privacy rules.
I don't think my custom DNS server or a pihole is enough anymore, let's firewall block all Facebook's fucking ip ranges.

Hahaha, the DPC (Data Protection Commission) has asked Facebook in a letter to stop transferring Europeans' data to the US.
Since the Privacy Shield agreement is off the table, it's illegal regardless to send any kind of PII data from the EU to the US.
How about we stop nicely asking and start giving fines in the form of millions every time PII data is transferred from the EU to the US by Facebook?
If the EU could grow some balls, that'd be fucking great.17 -
That movie about Facebook being made is so inaccurate. No one actually codes for hours straight. A good 90-95% of their time is combing through stackOverFlow posts from 200110

Installed my pihole a few days ago and not a very high percentage blocked.
Added google/facebook/twitter and some more to the wildcard (regex) blacklist and BAM, so many blocked queries!
Fuck Google, Facebook, twitter and other mass surveillance companies.26 -
Got rid of Facebook for personal reasons...spending more time on devrant and much more happy :) less politics!2

Just when I deactivated Facebook I found devrant. Hmm no regrets 😁 (thanks to Google play's homepage).4

devRant is the first time I see so many people announcing to the world how much they like the app. Imagine someone be like "I LOVE Facebook! <3"
Btw, I LOVE devRant! <33 -
I was told that my granny was having trouble signing into Facebook, so I go to help her and this is what happens.
Me: try and open Facebook.
Granny: *looks confused*
Granny: oh I know!
Granny: *opens up Gmail*
Me: *wtf is she doing?*
Granny: *opens an email from Facebook*
Granny: ok, I'm in Facebook.
Not sure whether to cringe or laugh 😅8 -

An interesting read about why the second (and last) WhatsApp co-founder left Facebook while leaving behind a whopping 850 million because ethics/morals.
"I sold my users' privacy to a larger benefit," Acton told Forbes. "I made a choice and a compromise. And I live with that every day."
Here's the article (do click through to the Forbes one): https://fossbytes.com/whatsapp-co-f...9 -
Hey guys
So, why so many rants about Facebook now?
I already knew that Facebook sells our data for a few years.... Didn't anyone else knew before that stupid #deletefacebook campaign?11 -
Got a friend request on Facebook and it reminded me of xkcd #624.
I hope they're at least using git-lfs.

For the privacy freaks of devRant, have a host file that blocks all Facebook owned domains:

You are seeing this ad because Facebook sold your data in order to become billion dollar company.
Haha.

Does anyone else feel Facebook is hell bent on attacking open source in order to gain a monopoly on it?
They are slowing replacing every industry standard tool with over engineered bullshit and it just gets lapped up like it's the best thing ever...EVERY SINGLE FUCKING TIME
Fuck you Facebook, i will never support you in your crusade against one of the things i hold closest to my heart.15 -
I finally bit the bullet and completely deleted my Facebook account! I am a free man! Fucc Facebook.12

Lets beat Snapchat!
But, How?
Let's buy WhatsApp, Instagram.

Now our apps have new features 🤑🤑
Go fuck yourself Facebook. New WhatsApp is shit!14 -
Facebook was forcing me to use their messenger app to read my messages on my mobile. I used to get the desktop version and everything was annoying but worked.
Now they blocked this by redirecting when trying to do that.....

I don't understand why people are making a fuss about Facebook.
It's free to use, the amount of users kept increasing (thus the cost of maintenance) yet the company kept getting bigger and bigger. Obviously they're not making all their money off the advertisements on Facebook's own website.
So why are people so surprised that they're "selling" user information?
This is really funny to me. Especially the media joining in saying that it makes all your information available to everybody when they're actually talking about the fact that the majority of Facebook users have their profile set to public and they can be easily found with a simple Google search.
People are so fucking hypocritical it makes me want to puke. If you don't want anybody to know what you posted, just don't fucking post it on a SOCIAL MEDIA in the first place.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that facebook is all flowers and love, they clearly didn't handle this situation well. They could have done something about this whole situation when it started instead of waiting for things to blow out of proportion.
However, people are just being assholes now. I highly doubt that they're reading all chats nor are they sending it over, they're probably just sending out some words you mention often so that it is pertinent for advertisers (ex. If you use the word computer next to buy, then maybe that triggers something). I could talk extensively about it but I'm way too lazy, the point is, they most likely aren't sending the nudes you sent to advertisers because that does not provide any benefits.
If you don't like Facebook, don't fucking use it. Delete your account and shut the fuck up. When you screw up in real life, there's no takesies backsies, why the fuck do people think it doesn't apply online? The government gathers up quite a lot of information on you yet I don't see you crying your eyes out.
Why the fuck do you care so much if an advertisement is tailored to specifically? Yeah, you talked about dildos and now you see dildo ads from Amazon, not happy? Just download adblock and shut up. If you're gullible and the moment you see an ad about single women in your area you click on the ad because you want to get laid right now, that's your problem.
Don't want people knowing about some aspects of your private life? Don't share it online.
Stop acting like people are any better at keeping secrets, I'm sure you had some people leak your secrets at least once, yet I doubt you sued them and you brought them to court.
===========
I'm sorry about this, it's just that Facebook is all over the news and I'm getting sick of it.
Also, I hate facebook, I'm not necessarily defending it, I'm more pissed at the medias for blowing this situation out of proportion.22 -
*sees how Facebook kicked me out of my Bitlbee session again*
Me: "Motherf-..."
Still there's some friends of mine on Facebook who apparently got really hooked.. can't for the love of the holy Raven seem to get them away from that shithole.
"Alright then Facebook.. your win. I'll install Messenger and Pages Manager again to at least have your shit be semi-usable again 😑"
*installs said apps*
"Holy shit that battery is draining fast, and I'll have to go out in half an hour"
*plugs phone in fast charger*
*phone while charging keeps on dropping battery level*
FACECUNTS!!!!!! 😤
*powers off phone to conserve battery life and goes off to cook a meal*
*comes back to boot up the phone again and uninstalls those Face-crapps*
*phone immediately starts raising its battery level super fast*
Coincidence? I think not 🤔🤔🤔2 -
I confess I’m one of those smug people right now who’s never had a Facebook account. Why?
Although I do have privacy concerns, I’m not on Facebook because I truly, genuinely, honestly, legitimately do not give a single flying Monkey’s fuck about what you or anyone else gets up to on your own time.
I don’t care. I have no interest. And I have even less interest in telling others what I’m doing.
I fucking hate people.3 -
Today I learned in a cafe why (some) users think that Facebook doesn't allow them data control. Due to drunkness I'm paraphrasing here, but it went something like this:
- I don't trust Facebook, because my posts that I make are visible to people that I didn't want to have it be seen to.
> Audience controls. Use them.
- This guy in town sent me a friend request, why would he be able to??1!1
> He and you share hometown. So probably friend suggestions based on you both explicitly sharing location, or he just visited your profile on name and wanted to get in touch with you. Socializing on the internet, it exists.
That's the kind of user that's roaming the facebooks on the internets and the googles I guess? The type of user that's surprised that their Facebook games and nametests expose information that they explicitly consent to? Give me a break. I care deeply about privacy, but this is just ridiculous.
On a different note, why the fuck is not a single one of those very same fucking Facebook users worried about 25-ish% of websites running their JavaScript (which you can check and block using NoScript and co.), which is the *actual* privacy threat? But muh nametests!!!
Fuck ignorant users!!!10 -
Fuck Facebook and its "BSD + patents" license. That is not how open source works and should never have to.10

Facebook you little piece of shit.
We have a page setup for a band since apparently this is what one does these days. But oh boy is facebook annoying. Can you please stop sending me 100 notifications a day about fking post boosting?! What the fuck. We are students we don't have money for this shit. fk off! <.<12 -

I am curious whether facebook IS listening to conversations or not.
Living with my girlfriend in a small appartment, yesterday we were talking about some shitty game we both played around 10 years ago, I was wondering whether the game still exists and googled on my phone (via LTE, not wifi) - yeah the game is still online and still the same shit.
Today she saw facebook sponsored ads to this game on HER facebook.
Today we watched a movie (Valerian and the thousands planets) - and there was this ship which looked similar to Millenium Falcon. I noted that in the midtime. After the movie - guess what - opened the facebook abd there was a sponsored ad to buy Millenium Falcon miniature or lego figure.
How? Randomized events? I do not think so. This was not the first time it happened.
Note: we are not native english speakers, maybe "millenium falcon" could be the only catch fb could achieve?16 -
I’m an admin of a Facebook page for a small business whose website I built (I don’t personally do anything on the page, I just have admin rights :p). The location is clearly listed on the page, you just have to scroll down a bit on Facebook to see it, just like on every other Facebook page. There is also a link to the website that contains the location. Yet, EVERY WEEK, we get at least one person who sends us a message on Facebook: “where are you located?” Somehow they managed to turn on a computer, sign into Facebook and open a conversation dialog... but to scroll down a bit or visit our website to see the full location is not within their mental capacity. WTF3

Reading the Facebook PHP SDK documentation today to make a custom feed on a site. The documentation tells you how to do absolutely everything. Which is great in theory, but means you have loads to read to find the small bit you need.
Turns out I didn't need the SDK after all. Used simple curl request instead. -
Facebook 2FA:
Want to log in? Sure, authorize your login. Oh you've authorized it? Nah you can't get in. Log in again.
2FA, excellent technology, except when it's implemented by "move fast and break things" Facebook.
Facebook Marketplace:
Want to buy $listing? Sure, you can send a message to the seller to ask for details. Oh, you want to send them a message? Nah sorry, you can't send messages to this person. You'll have to go to their profile, send them a message there and do it not with our le fancy instant messages but by manually typing it in. Because you know, reasons. Message approvals or something like that probably. Because why on Earth would Facebook support its own ecosystem?!
Move fast and break things. And breaking things those certified enganeers at Facebook sure do. Fucking pieces of shit.7 -
Numbers:
- Facebook Monthly Active Users = 2.4 Billions
- Facebook Fake Users, not included in MAU = 3.4 Billions (FB declared recently disabling that much)
Total: 2.4+3.4=5.8 Billions
Worldwide internet users: 4.3 Billions
Maybe a little function like this could help?
function createFBAccount() {
if (numberOfAccounts++ > peopleOnEarth) {
print "You are not human"
exit

Guy on Facebook: *asks a simple question*
Me: *crams an entire bachelors degree into a single comment*3 -
When I was in high school Facebook was just coming out and it was...
- a way for the cool kids to exclude anyone they didn’t like from a visible social circle.
When I was in university Facebook was taking over the world and it was...
- a place for your mom to embarrass you and your racist aunt/uncle to make uncomfortable racist comments.
Today Facebook is...
- a serious threat to society itself. A direct threat to truth and the enemy of the press.
And yet most of these weak-minded, short-term dopamine addicts are still sucking Facebook’s flaccid cock.
———
To loosely quote iceberg slim...
A real pimp can eye a bitch and gauge right away how much mileage she has...
“That hoe is good for 500 fucks”
Once the mileage runs out the bitch gets strung out and you gotta let her go.
I wonder how many more likes these dopamine-driven Facebook hoes have left in them? I wonder?
Ps. Yes, Facebook is a pimp and every time you look at it you are a hoe. You give up the preverbal pussy to them, they sell your pussy to the ticks (advertisers) and then you get fucked, getting just enough dopamine so that your fine with them selling your pussy for profit.

Ok this is freaking creepy. I searched for information about login systems on other websites for some time. Not once did I touch Facebook. Then Facebook show me targeted ads when I hoped on 30 minutes later. How the heck does Facebook get that data in the first place? I'm starting to get pissed that my data is just handed out to everyone, even by search engines.

Qin Chen, a 38 year old facebook employee, recently committed suicide and facebook is trying really hard to hide this.
Apparently he was too stressed out at work and was trying hard to steer things his way, he almost succeeded, but then his manager backstabbed him and left him helpless.
Instead of promoting a better work culture and taking steps against such malpractices at workplace, facebook is trying to hide this incident.
Facebook has to realize that them behaving this way not only insults the departed and his family, but also raises a question that is the life of any of their current employees of any value to facebook, or do they just look at them like workforce and not humans?
Let us not be silent. It was Chen yesterday, it could be any one of us tomorrow.28 -

Why can't big companies like Facebook include a fucking change log I the update description in App Store?2
-
With the movement of people recently deleting their facebook accounts, this actually covers a valid concern I didn't even think of, since I personally don't use that feature at all, nor have I ever used it.
People that used the "login with facebook" a lot, especially with websites that exclusively use it, will flush not only their facebook account doing that, but also all accounts they have ever used to log in with facebook, if not actually thought as far as checking the apps section of facebook and trying to migrate your account, which is also rarely possible.
So basically many people that do use it, simply won't delete their facebook account, because it has this backup parachute attached with its strings, that does not allow for an easy exit, except for literally ripping it all out and losing every account it seems.
Ignore dashlanes self advertisement bullshit at the bottom, the blog itself is still highly valuable in itself.

Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg broke several days of silence in the face of a raging privacy storm to go on CNN this week to say he was sorry. He also admitted the company had made mistakes; said it had breached the trust of users; and said he regretted not telling Facebookers at the time their information had been misappropriated.
From techcrunch article.13 -
Why the *fuck* did Facebook decide to nag users by constantly reminding them of how dumb and miserable they are by showing the old-ass posts from years and years ago?? I don't want to see some random shotpost i posted 5 years ago, i don't give a fuck!!
How the hell uses this anyway? Who on earth cares about his facebook image so much, that sharing this stuff is actually meaningful?
Maybe i'm missing a point, but again my facebook profile is just a wall of memes and vapid shit that i don't care about.
I'm starting to really fucking hate facebook in every way, too bad its the only real way to contact people here in scandinavia...
This country is full of applefags anyway, maybe i should just pack up and move to a country with a more sensible communication platform :D7 -

According to the report of Reuters : Brazil's Ministry of Justice said on Monday it has fined U.S. tech giant Facebook 6.6 million reais ($1.6 million) for improperly sharing user data. The ministry's department of consumer protection said it had found that data from 443,000 Facebook users was made improperly available to developers of an App called 'thisisyourdigitallife.' The data was being shared for "questionable" purposes, the ministry said in a statement.7

Not programming related but is related to devrant.
I recently deleted facebook from my phone, and just a few days ago I got my first ever facebook ad! (An ad advertising that I should download the Facebook app.)
If this is not representative of Facebook's slow and perhaps eventual demise, I don't know what is.
This is related to devrant because I deleted the facebook app because I enjoyed DevRant more. Oh and also I feel less stressed now that I've basically unplugged from that rotten social media platform.3 -
hah, there is a big problem with Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram..

So I don't use Facebook, but I had an account and I decided to delete it.
Before I do that, I tried to use the tool they have to get all the information they have about me.
They said it will take sometime and I will get an email when its done so that I can download it.
It's been more than 24 hours.
Is it taking all this time because they have so much information on me??6 -
I keep getting contacted on Facebook Messenger by "null", and receiving "message" from my friends. How can a social network suck so much?

Everyone is deleting their Facebook just to upload their data to Vero (where it'll never be removed from)...1
-
Facebook know what we want. So I take this opportunity to search for the particular ads or services I am looking for. Like I am currently searching for a technician to repair my MacBook Pro. Simple WhatsApp to my other phone.
And now I got various ads about "repairing MacBook" in Instagram. Hahahahaha -
I read through my old 2012 onwards chat threads on Facebook Messenger and felt disgusted with my cringey teenager seld.5
-
Facebook Beta App is not working on my Android. Anyway, who needs Facebook when you have devRant and everyone understands your posts? Haha

Facebook keeps popping up with news about merging Instagram into Facebook to create F.B.I
I'm like WHAT THE F***!
Ahh, I realize people arent going to give a shit about this either.
They can slowly bake it in a *slow boiling a frog style* and eventually it will be merged.
Delete Facebook.
Delete Instagram.
Delete Whatsapp.
Read Devrant!8 -
Facebook world hack was my first hackathon failed miserably
but had great time with fb dev's reporting password related bug on their platform -
Has anyone else noticed NULL thing on Facebook marketplace? I mean for f* sake it's been there for at least a month now.

Woah there, Facebook. We've not even been on the first date yet.
Well, you've been taking my info for a while now, so technically we're married but still.
Creeeeepy.

People looking for developers at facebook using anonymous profiles, no project specification and ridiculous prices 😷😣😥😕😷😣😥😖😖😯😓😒😣😣😣😣😣😯😲

Facebook Messenger's latest update wanted to do something with my Google Drive, and I got a prompt asking "Do you trust Facebook?"
Unfortunately, there was no option to say I trust Hitler with the Tsar Bomb more than I trust Facebook and Google talking to each other.5 -
Facebook, Google, Microsoft, and Twitter will now let you transfer data between their services.

Non-programming related rant:
I didn't have a profile picture of facebook. So, I put one & removed the update post from timeline.
Still getting likes.
I don't want them *fb.2 -
Can anyone explain to me why facebook got pulled over for selling user data and google hasn't yet?5
-
Having just deleted my Facebook profile in the wake of the Cambridge analytica scandal (straw, camel etc) I was wondering..
Does the GDPR which I believe takes effect from May retroactively mean that Facebook will be forced to delete my data properly, not just "after 90 days it becomes anonymized"1 -
For those who care, Facebook is now Meta, so meta will be stalking you via Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp5
-
The Facebook groups related to programming are full of spamming shitty links. You won't learn from there at all.1
-
I am impressed by the enthusiasm coming from people when ever Facebook release something, it must get tiring...
-
It appears Facebook Messenger has started supporting a very limited markdown...
You can now use stuff like *bold* and _italic_ it seems...2 -
> Facebook is shit
> Any tool developed by Facebook is gold (well most of them)

Why the hell does my Samsung phone prevent me from uninstalling the Facebook app and instead offers me to disable it? WTF, NO, i want it freakin gone.
Bitch, Visibility: Hidden & Visibility: Gone are two different things.2 -
If you're going to ban Parler, ban Facebook, Twitter and Reddit too.
Or don't ban anything, because it won't change anything.
What idiocy.2 -
“The point of making a native app is to make it faster and more reliable than the web version”
Well, I guess Facebook Messenger for Windows misses that point entirely.2 -
Someone asked me if i know a way to hack Facebook profile. Instead I want to give them a malware or virus. Anyone can help me get a good virus which disguise as a FB hacking app? Thanks6

So now you have to upload a government issued ID for access to the Pages API on Facebook?
What a fucking joke Facebook. Just because you screwed with customer's data, you're now making us do this.4 -
Following recent accusations against Facebook, I downloaded my data from Facebook. They've data of all the contacts ever existed on my phone and logs of all the messages and calls between me and anyone else.
This immense amount of data is really scary regarding how much control they can have over one's personal life.
Fuck Facebook.4 -
Anyone who is participating in Facebook CTF and wants team members?
Or we can form a team together.8 -

Facebook rant incoming!
I'm so pissed off with Facebook right now, woke up this morning to check Facebook and it asked me to submit a photo of myself (it's not like Facebook doesn't already have many photos of me), then after submitting it logs me out "for security reasons". The only thing I've done different since the last time I was on Facebook was add someone.... If Facebook doesn't approve my photo I will just say fuck it and stay off Facebook.1 -
We've all seen the people with names like 'Chutia', or 'Boob', but today I came across a person with a surname as 'Shit'. :/
Facebook is going to have a hard time with that one. -
Facebook should switch to NodeJS, seriously.
They eat the memory of my devices, that's weird it's only Messenger and Facebook who do this..Don't use Ajax when you don't know how to profit from it without affecting the user experience.13 -
Has anyone else observed your facebook feeds matching the context from your whatsapp chats? Or are these coincidences happening more often to me only?
-
So Facebook was apparently inflating the video views stats.
I'm have a doubt that the view counts on tiktok is also massively inflated to get people hyped.
I mean on tiktok, you can see videos with hundreds of thousands of views but barely any comments or interactions.1 -
- we are going to use react in our next project.
- why ?
- because facebook is react
(I like react but .. Is that an argument ? )4 -
facebook/meta:you have to be able to do 2 leetcode mediums in 15 minutes each for our technical screening
me: well guess ill just die1 -
Why would you use graphdb for "facebook-like" notification system?
It doesn't work that way, dude..
😑 -
Does anyone else just keep on tirelessly scrolling down the rant feed like Facebook? And oh, also read and interact with the rants unlike Facebook where we just "meh" on most of the posts until we find something that catches our eye?
Which is a rare case now.
