Kaspersky Lab hackers promise us that with the Friend or Foe application they can reveal to us what Facebook knows about us without us knowing.
Facebook collects a lot of information about our behavior, they note. The type of content we upload, what we search for, the apps we use, who does what and when.
With the Kaspersky Labs app, we too will be able to identify Friends and Enemies among our "friends".
The Friend or Foe app will receive the following information: your public profile, your friends list, your custom friends lists, your Updates, your birthday, your location, your location, and who you follow and who follows you, as well as your friends' birthdays, your friends' interests, locations, and what you like. The app will not be able to post to Facebook.
Kaspersky Lab's application is available for free and allows users to rate how "valuable" their digital friends are, while also showing what others think of them.
This application will reveal which of the hundreds of followers are real "fans", that is, who makes the most reposts and comments among a user's friends.
At the same time, the application highlights the threats to users of the social network and how they can protect their personal information.
For those who like to use various applications to analyze their activity, Kaspersky Lab has created a tool that collects statistics on their Facebook activity. Friend Or Foe shows how many videos and photos a user posts, how many likes they get, and many other statistics that are of interest to Facebook enthusiasts.
Friend Or Foe is currently available in English, Russian, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese (Brazilian dialect), Spanish (Mexican dialect), Arabic, and Japanese, with more languages to follow in the near future.
