Facebook announces “Anonymous Login” that prevents personal information from being shared

[Guest Justin Herrick]

 

We have all experienced it before. You have to login with your Facebook account and it accesses all of your personal information. It does not matter whether you are just testing something. No matter what, Facebook’s third-party applications need to get inside. That all ends today, though. With Anonymous Login, users can try an app without ever having personal information handed over.

 

Changes are also being made to the regular Facebook login system. Upon logging in with your account, you have full control over what information different applications can access. And the App Control Panel has been redesigned to easily see what apps have access.

 

So think twice before deciding whether or not you want to give Candy Crush Saga the keys to your profile.
