Court in Belgium issued that Facebook will be fine $270,000 per day for tracking users who aren’t signed in within 48 hours, courts said Facebook uses a cookie that attaches itself to user’s device the minute they login the website, cookie will stored up two years, cookie track your hits when you visit a page that Facebook recommended.
Spokesman from Facebook said, the cookie that called ” datr ” is safe and we are using it more than 5 years and not any of our 5 billions users effected by it. But the court’s point is Facebook is tracking people without their permission, and this is not the first time Belgium has voiced its displeasure how Facebook works, in April a study found out Facebook also have cookies that tracked logged-out users without their consent.
Looks like Facebook follows our every move, what we like or what we share, and this Belgium people very angry gave 48hrs to Facebook to stop this action.
