Facebook faces Crackdown

        Facebook faces Crackdown in Europe for providing its users' personal info to advertisers. The European Commission is working onto stop this kind of eavesdropping on the users' info by the most popular Social networking site, Facebook. It said that, Facebook has been using a different and sophisticated software to draw this info and is selling it to advertisers.
        Facebook has, however, denied the claims. A spokesman for the company said: "We do not share people's names with an advertiser without a person's explicit consent and we never sell personal information to third parties." 
        Anyhow, it is not yet decided whether Facebook has done it or not and it takes time for the truth to get revealed.
