   Hello All!   
      
   Facebook FIRED 52 employees caught SPYING - book reveals   
      
   Zuckerberg's employees allegedly ABUSED their access to the   
   social network's user data between 2014 and 2015, including   
   male associates apparently obtaining location information on   
   women for their own personal gains.   
      
   FB engineers were also caught reportedly accessing private   
   messages from accounts and viewing deleted photographs,   
   according to a book titled: "An Ugly Truth: Inside Facebook's   
   Battle for Domination" by journalists Sheera Frenkel and   
   Cecilia Kang.   
      
   According to one shocking excerpt in the Daily Telegraph, a   
   male employee accessed the location data of a woman he had gone   
   on holiday with after she left him following a fight - tracking   
   her down to her new hotel and confronting her.   
      
   At the time, over 16,000 employees had access to private user   
   data - the authors posing the question how many other staff   
   could have abused their privilege, but were never caught?
