San Francisco, April 11: Facebook has launched a “Data Abuse Bounty” programme to reward people who report any misuse of data by app developers. “We committed to launching this programme a few weeks ago as part of our efforts to more quickly uncover potential abuse of people’s information,” Collin Greene, Head of Product Security, wrote in a blog post, late on Tuesday. The Data Abuse Bounty is inspired by the existing bug bounty programme that the company uses to uncover and address security issues and it would help Facebook identify violations of its policies.
