By Cameron Abbott and Keely O’Dowd
Recent news reports have revealed that Facebook has been hit with another data scandal.
The anonymised data of approximately 3 million Facebook users has reportedly been published on a poorly protected website. This data was originally collected via a Facebook quiz app called “myPersonality”. The myPersonality app was developed as part of the “myPersonality project” run by academics at the University of Cambridge’s The Psychometrics Centre.
