The privacy of all three has been questioned on more than one occasion. And now it is revealed that Facebook knows a lot more about users than previously thought. You also know what users do outside of the app. All this thanks to a service called Onavo.

Facebook spies on users

Onavo is a company dedicated to collecting mobile data statistics. It was recently revealed that the social network wanted to make use of the Onavo application (a service that protects user data on the internet through a VPN). But Facebook's idea was not to use it for this. They wanted traffic to be saved on their servers.

So Mark Zuckerberg's company wanted to store the data of millions of users. Regardless if they have a profile on your social network or not. So far, the Onavo app has been downloaded about 24 million times. So from Facebook they have been able to access the data of all those users.

Onavo has wanted to get out of trouble and they have said that other applications and websites have used this method for years. So it remains to be seen if it is revealed what other applications do the same. And we will wait for any possible reaction from Facebook.
