Facebook is under fire for how Cambridge Analytica used private user data
in various political campaigns — reportedly tens of millions of users have
been affected.

*Can you ask Facebook to change their app permissions to stop this from
happening again?*

Hey there,

The headlines speak for themselves: Up to 50 million Facebook users had
their information used by Cambridge Analytica, a private company, without
their knowledge or consent1. That's not okay.

This wasn't a data breach, no one hacked into Facebook or stole passwords.
It happened because Facebook allowed apps to access not just sensitive
information of people who used those programs – but their friends as well.

Facebook said it’s taken steps to “limit developer access to detailed
friend data”, but Facebook’s current default settings leave a lot of
questions and a lot of data flying around. *One thing is clear though:
Facebook needs to step up and respect its users.*

Will you join us in asking Facebook to change its app permissions and
ensure your privacy is protected by default?

If you play games, read news or take quizzes on Facebook, chances are you
are doing those activities through third party apps and not through
Facebook itself. The default permissions that Facebook gives to those third
parties currently includes data from your education and work, current city
and posts on your timeline. Surprised? We were too.

Facebook's current app permissions leave billions of its users vulnerable
without knowing it.

Will you tell Facebook to change its policies to ensure that third parties
can't access the information of the friends of people who use an app?

At Mozilla, our approach to data is simple: no surprises and user choice is
critical. We believe in that not just because it makes for creating good
products but because trust is a key factor in keeping the internet healthy.

The internet is transformative because it's a place to explore, transact,
connect, and create. Trust is key to that. We're pushing to Facebook to
improve its privacy practices not just because of its 2 billion users but
for the health of the internet more broadly too.

Will you join us in asking Facebook to change its app permissions and
ensure your privacy is protected by default?
