Facebook has just been charged with a series of privacy violations by a Canadian public policy group.
Perhaps it was only a matter of time before this happened, especially after the latest BBC reportage indicated how easily a rogue program could be created to harvest personal information from the site.
Canadian officials have called for a full review of social networking rules. In terms of web development, this appears to be an essential next step for one ofthe fastest-growing areas of our industry.
