I have liked the odd 9gag thing before.I did not "like" this post.
Facebook are telling people I did!
That is defamatory and fraudulent.
That is both civil and criminal liability for Facebook.
Not sure what I should do.

ReplyDeleteIt's simple, stop using Facebook.
Recorded delivery letter to Facebook about processing of inaccurate data, and exercising your right to object; MCoL if no change, if you have suffered distress as a result of this?
ReplyDeleteWell, actually, as a result of my Blog, Facebook are investigating and think it is some sort of "clickjacking" and they are sorting it.
DeleteThe power!
DeleteSpecifically, a clickjacking attack is one where a malicious website has something legit looking that you click on (typically an "X" on an advert) that visually hides something like a Facebook Like button, but is transparent to clicks. Thus, you click the X to close the advert, the browser forwards the click to the Facebook Like underneath, and you have sent Facebook a genuine Like for the content.
ReplyDeleteUnderstandably, if Facebook catches people using clickjacking to generate Likes, they're liable to lose their Facebook accounts completely.
Ah possibly explains why I quite often see fb friends liking shameless commercial organisations. I have always assumed something fishy must be going on.
DeleteI see this all the time with amazon.
ReplyDeletePeople have clicked like on amazon and then when amazon place adverts on facebook for _specific items_ it says that the person liked it.
