News & Reviews:   Facebook

So it finally happened, Facebook Dating is now official and Malaysia is part of the first wave! among 18 other countries. According to Facebook, Facebook Dating is not really like Tinder and other dating apps, as it also specializes in safety and privacy (haha, right) and doesn't require you to swipe left or right. Instead, it uses a "Secret Crush" feature. Here's how it works.

Based on a report by thestar.com.my, there will be a feature that will be included in a future called Authentication, which will stop users from taking screenshots of conversations that are determined by the user. That being said, if the other user does not enable the aforementioned feature, they will still be able to take screenshots of the the private chat.

A shocking update has been added onto an article on Facebook’s Newsroom that was published 4 weeks ago. It mentions that millions of Instagram users’ passwords had been stored in a readable format for all of their employees to see.

Facebook-owned services such as WhatsApp, Instagram as well as Facebook themselves are currently experiencing technical difficulties causing them to be inaccessible for the time being. The outtage could potentially affect services other than the ones mentioned, so do take note.

Have you ever scrolled through Facebook and wondered why you’re seeing certain things on your timeline? Facebook has finally come through with an answer for you through their new tool called "Why am I seeing this?"

Facebook is in the news once again, but for the wrong reasons. You have already seen plenty of Mark Zuckerberg memes online when he went to court last year, but this time around, it appears that your Facebook and Instagram passwords were exposed internally by Facebook employees and you might want to change it to a new one.

The horror! Facebook’s family of apps which include Instagram, Facebook, FB Messenger and Whatsapp has been down for the past few hours now. The problem not only affects us Malaysians but everyone around the world.

Dark mode is honestly such a blessing to the eyes, especially when you’re using apps so late at night. Apps like Youtube, Twitch, Twitter and more now have Dark mode on their apps. It’s only taken forever but FB Messenger finally has Dark mode.

Today, YTL Communications in collaboration with Facebook has announced that Malaysia will be the first large-scale market pilot in Asia with the launch Terragraph high-speed broadband in Georgetown, Penang. All access to Terragraph’s network such as Public WiFi as well as Fixed Wireless Access will be free of charge, until the end of the market pilot.

Ever accidentally send a message to your crush on Facebook Messenger and reply “oops, wrong person” as a cover up? Yeah, we feel you. You won’t have to suffer that fate any longer as you can now delete messages on there (at least, within 10 minutes).
