Report: FaceBook User Data "Scraped"; 1.5 Billion Users' Personal Information Now Being Sold on Hacker Sites

For those of you wondering why FaceBook has been down (as well as FaceBook-owned Instagram), this might be the answer.

Update: the article clarifies that this does not have anything to do with FaceBook being down. Though... I wonder if they mean this hack did not directly cause the outage -- while leaving open the possibility that FaceBook's efforts to improve security and trace the hack are causing the outages.

The private and personal information of over 1.5 billion Facebook users is being sold on a popular hacking-related forum, potentially enabling cybercriminals and unscrupulous advertisers to target Internet users globally.

This constitutes the biggest and most significant Facebook data dump to date.

It is seemingly unrelated to an earlier 2021 Facebook data dump, where 500 million users were affected.

Highlights:

Data scrapers are selling sensitive personal data on 1.5 billion Facebook users.

Data contains users’: name, email, phone number, location, gender, and user ID.

Data appears to be authentic.

Personal data obtained through web scraping.

Data can be utilized for phishing and account takeover attacks.

Sold data claimed to be new from 2021.

If they saw user data being copied off at tremendous volume (and they may have - it should be easy to spot in a good monitoring system), then they may have panicked and thrown a switch to cut it off and accidentally fucked up everything.

It has never made any sense to me. I was in college when Facebook hit the scene. I signed up because, practically overnight, it became the *only* way to find out about stuff like parties and events. It was drastic and fast. The student union became irrelevant and Facebook is where it all was.

I made a profile, and it was minimal. It had my school E-Mail address (mandatory) and name (mandatory) and nothing else. No relationship status, no address, no phone number, nothing. I used to get asked why I didn't have any information in my Facebook. I would reply with, "would you put your name, address, telephone number and girlfriend's name up on a billboard? No? That's why I don't put any of that on Facebook."

They looked at me like I had two heads. I didn't get them, they didn't get me. But even without this data theft, Facebook is - and always has been - a privacy nightmare.

Yup, but those aren't "users" - they're just data points. And Zuckerberg lied his ass off to Congress when he said, in plain language, that if you're not a Facebook user and didn't agree to their terms of service then you're not tracked and targeted by them and they don't have a dossier on you.

They do it through social media buttons. There are other ways, but that's a *huge* one. That Facebook (or Twitter or whatever) icon on every page you go to tracks you. The first time you see the button, you get a cookie with a unique identifier. That unique identifier is sent back every other time the button is observed. Even if you don't have an account and they can't link it to a logged-in user, they have a massive dossier on you.

96 Facebook.com Is for Sale as Worldwide Outage, Whistleblower, and Massive User Data Breach Collide in Perfect Storm

was reading about it earlier on zerohedge (I know)
Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp Down Worldwide After DNS Records Vanish; Employees Badges Reportedly Not Working

Update (1507ET): Facebook appears to have more than DNS issues, as NYT's Sheera Frenkel reports:

"Was just on phone with someone who works for FB who described employees unable to enter buildings this morning to begin to evaluate extent of outage because their badges weren't working to access doors."

pretty good blow by blow coverage today
According to The Epoch Times, this outage is universal and comes on the tail of the whistleblower's complaint making global governments ask questions:

100 The timing of the widespread outages comes as a Facebook whistleblower will be testifying before Congress on Tuesday. The whistleblower appeared on "60 Minutes" Sunday, detailing the tech company's mission to put profit before doing "what was good for the public," including clamping down on hate speech. Shares of the tech company slid 6% by early afternoon, tumbling not just on the whistleblower but also the global outage.

Nope. I meant it figuratively - like shutting off DNS and going too far.

There is a literal switch - a big red button - in every datacenter (or several, one per area of datacenter in big facilities) that does that. It's called the Emergency Power-Off, or EPO.

Do NOT hit the EPO. Ever.

Or their access control systems depend on DNS in such a way that requires public internet DNS to work. As I put on the last thread:

Anyone who designs a physical access control system in a way that depends on DNS lookups is a fool. Anyone who designs a physical access control system in a way that depends on DNS lookups from the public internet outside of your own infrastructure is an idiot.

Back in the day, maybe. Nowadays that isn't much of a risk since everything has enough stored charge to park and head crashes are super rare.

But everything going down hard *sucks* and takes a monumental effort and tremendous amounts of time to recover and get back online. Plus state changes + moving parts == risk. There's always the chance that the body at rest won't want to get into motion again.

Anyone who designs a physical access control system in a way that depends on DNS lookups is a fool. Anyone who designs a physical access control system in a way that depends on DNS lookups from the public internet outside of your own infrastructure is an idiot.

298 I find it interesting that FB/IG has been on the warpath in a serious way for the past week or so. I've been given a warning for saying "fuck facebook" which I at least used to be able to get away with. Local gunshop was blocked from putting up photos of their new inventory (after 6 years) and had older posts removed. Others have noticed almost zero views/comments (shadowbanned).

I've had problems ever since FB bought out IG, and they've gotten progressively worse. When I say I've been shadowbanned etc. everybody thinks I've gone all Alex Jones. I'll be interested to see the reactions when they're back up. Fuck that little Menlo Park weasel.

Depends on what you mean by "go down." I am sure he has enough in cash, gold, US Treasuries, real estate and other holdings to ensure his wealth for a couple of generations.

The S&P 500 as a whole is down 1.5%, and growth stocks in particular seem to be taking it on the chin. Yet Facebook has problems of an entirely different order. Shares of the social networking powerhouse have lost more than 12% of their value in the past month -- well over $100 billion in market capitalization.

525 Aren't the DNS servers the various IPs point to controlled by ICANN, not Facebook?

Generally, no. Facebook is big enough that its DNS servers are probably run by Facebook.

Even my dinky site, the DNS servers are managed by the same hosting provider that I use for web (and email) hosting. The DNS entries are managed by me, using an app at the domain provider.

If my hosting provider went down, I could still go to the domain provider and change my DNS servers to someone else and re-upload my pages to the someone else’s servers. Facebook is probably far too complicated for something as simple as that.

If someone hacked my domain account and deleted my domain names, that would really suck. It would be difficult to fix and would take days at best.

That, and it because an organization will host its own DNS servers, and routing tables... it would be very easy to 'roll back' any changes.

In fact if they are using a Microsoft infrastructure the DNS rolls into Active Directory, which means every Domain server would have to be compromised. Same with other security configurations.

But if you ever want to blow up a Microsoft infrastructure? Just go to first created Domain controller, which is by default the schema master... and change the schema. Changes replicate... and... boom.

The DNS records are gone. All around the world.

That's not a mistake. That was deliberate.

DNS is designed to self replicate downhill from root servers. You take the dns out of the right place and it will naturally get removed all over. Or I could be full of it.

Yes and no.

The record that is key here is the NS record that tells the world where to look for your DNS servers. Their DNS servers are probably still up and running and have the data, but the NS record is gone.

And it has expired from all the caches. If they put the NS record on some TLD right now it should propagate pretty quickly. This has not been done.

I was snarking when I said that the DOJ/FBI heard they were behind 1/6 on 60 Minutes and ordered CyberCommand to strike. That's not...implausible.

557 476 Joe, good point.
If anyone's engineers could get such a massive system back up quickly, it's FB's, and they're still scrambling.

And again: every MINUTE FB stays down means millions of dollars in lost revenue for not only Zuck, but his major-league advertisers. They're gonna be pissed royal.

I'm not familiar with FB's hosting infrastructure but I'm willing to bet that its geometrically more complex than my dinky little 50 data node lake that I have to play with at work.

When ours "goes down" in that the cluster responsible for the map reducing dies, its "have fun boys, see you tomorrow morning... maybe."

575 This only works if everyone at Facebook loses all thier money and then ends up in prison. If Facebook goes down forever, at some point, everyone walks away fine (especially when they preemptively dump thier stocks and ther corrupt government they fund refuses to prosecute them) the only ones screwed are the small investors whose 401ks get destroyed.

Then someone working there will just make a new shittier version.
