News of the starting tests have been shared by a popular leakster Jane Manchun Wong. The leakster not only tells us what she knows, but also shows us a video depicting Facebook's dark mode in action. We do not know how long will the test take, but it will probably be over in a week or few.

The app will stop working on January 28th; its users will be redirected towards the browser version of the website. The reason for Facebook's decision to kill off desktop app is the supposedly low interest it has garnered among the PC owners. Its users are already receiving proper notifications. Facebook Messenger for PC, on the other hand, will still ...

People responsible for the hack are so-called white hat hackers from the OurMine group. The group has made it inside both of Facebook's accounts, but it did not use its access to do anything bad; instead, the hackers have left behind a message inviting FB to talk to them about improving their security. This is not the first time OurMine has done ...

FaceApp is not a new application, but it is currently living through a sort of ”renessaince” thanks to thousands of people using a new option to make their faces look older, therefore taking a peek at what they might look like in a dozen or so or more years. It is a fun thing to do, but, as is the case with many fun activities, there is a dark ...

Ah, Australia. You never fail to bring a smile to my face with your tech-related news. Today I had the pleasure - and now you, the readers, will - of learning about Bruce, the Aussie Slang Bot.

The possibility of reporting Facebook issues in such a fashion already exists on iPhones, but merely as a secondary choice to the usual report system. Now, though, Facebook wants to introduce it both to iOS and Android as the default option. The old system of reporting from the help center will remain, but as a secondary method.

Such a high number of deleted accounts comes from Facebook's new, more stern rulebook. The company has cracked down on accounts that do not follow FB rules to the letter: banhammer can now strike anyone who shares content that promotes violence, hatespeech or fake news.

Some of the British ICO's (Information Commissioner’s Office) ideas are the removal of the Like button for FB users under 18, keeping their parents updated about their FB activity history and turning off their localization by default. The legal basis for these changes are already set in the recently signed RODO agreement. Still, it is unsure whether ...

So, yeah, Facebook. Shady and untrustworthy data thieves who are slowly losing popularity to more trendy social platforms. Since they seemingly cannot stop taking our personal information from us, and their attempts at becoming a platform for open-minded and tolerant people are stiff at best, what else can they do to remain popular? Oh, I do not know, ...

This time, Zuckerberg's social service aims to remove white nationalists. Starting next week, FB will begin a complete ban on propagating, supporting and even positively talking about any kind of white nationalism. White Power? Not on Facebook, it seems. Every FB group that even marginally sympathises with such movements will be removed from the service. On ...

Funny how mobile FB gets arguably more attention than the stationary one. The mobile version of the world's most popular social platform is currently receiving a new section. It is called Gaming and its goal is to make Facebook useful for, well, gamers; Facebook wants it to be a single source of all things video game-related, from reviews to other players ...

You asked for it and you got it - the Dark Mode is here. Messenger's Dark Mode (for both iOS and Android) has been at works for some time. Now that it is finally available, how do you access it?
