Facebook have your calllogs and SMS logs

Facebook Biggest Dis-closer

Facebook has been collecting call records and SMS data from Android devices for years. Several Twitter users have reported finding months or years of call history data in their downloadable Facebook data file.

A number of Facebook users have been spooked by the recent Cambridge Analytica privacy scandal, prompting them to download all the data that Facebook stores on their account. The results have been alarming for some.

A Facebook user was startled to find that the social network had been keeping records of his phone calls and texts. A report from Ars Technica corroborated his findings.

In response, Facebook says that it's an opt-in feature on Messenger for Android, as well as the low-data Facebook Lite - and that it's about making the social network better.

Also of note is that Apple's iOS, the operating system on the iPhone and iPad, doesn't allow that kind of access to call and text data at all without very specific permission. That means Apple fans don't have to worry as much about Facebook having call or text records.

However, there's reason to believe that the main Facebook app could have been quietly collecting this data too, until Google made some changes to Android in October 2017.

Google 72 qubit quantum computer

Google 72 qubit quantum computing Bristlecone,a very first quantum processor chip which will become mainstream tech in futures technology. The researcher of Google is testing 72 qubit(quantum bit) chip in computer. 72 qubit architecture that allows 72 quantum bits on a single array and overlapping multiple a qubit chip, it can optimize upto lowest possible error rate using a special process well known as Quantum Error Correction . The quantum computer performs is impossibly high at lower power rate as compare to traditional computers. The electronic speed of traditional computers are relative to Speed Of Light , whereas the electronic speed of quantum computers will be at the Speed Of Light . A stander bit can be either 0 or 1 whereas, a qubit can be 0, 1 or a mashup of the two. Bristlecone is under research of Google whose main aim is to generalize the Quantum computing at public level and soon it is going to bring a new era o...
