Facebook taps user data to defend workers from threat 0 SHARES Share it! CNBC reported that it interviewed more than a dozen former Facebook security employees, some of whom questioned the ethics of what was portrayed as an unclearly defined practice at the leading social network. Facebook spokesman Anthony Harrison told AFP that the company’s physical security team exists to keep workers safe and that strict processes are in place to protect people’s privacy. “Any suggestion our on-site physical security team has overstepped is absolutely false,” Harrison said. Facebook mines the social network for threats against the company or its workers, and its watch list can even feature photos of people, CNBC reported.
