It was recently found out that the cloud storage giant, Backblaze, was unknowingly sharing data with Facebook.<\/p>\n

Indeed, the cloud provider was using Google Tap Manager in order to deploy key third-party code in a streamlined fashion, however, the implementation came with a Facebook trigger, and a new Facebook campaign that was intended for marketing web pages was inadvertently configured to run on signed-in pages.<\/p>\n

Hence, the campaign was run on Backblaze pages alongside its web UI pages, which allows users to browse their\u00a0B2 Cloud Storage\u00a0files. Between March 8 and 21, it was found out that\u00a09,245 users had visited the page while the campaign was active. Moreover, it was reported that\u00a0the third-party tracking code was able to collect many file and folder\u00a0metadata, including file names, sizes, and dates.<\/p>\n

Backblaze confirmed that it has successfully\u00a0removed the Facebook tracking code from its service and has informed its customers that the company will be more careful in reviewing applicable\u00a0third-party codes on its website.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
