Re: Facebook says one hundred API users may have improperly accessed user data
#12The Facebook blog post would probably be a better source, since it explains the nature of the data:

I.e. apps added to a group by an admin could get some metadata about members of the group.
(That blog post would also have been harder to mis-interpret than the NBC article. Half the early comments seem to think that this was about Facebook engineers improperly accessing data.)

I wonder how many people think like this. Obviously the Roman Empire did not constitute the entire planet, so the claim that world peace was achieved should be provably false.

Pax Romana, look it up.
Of course some of the most horrific of emperors ruled during that period.

Oh okay, I didn't realize that the Roman Empire covered the whole world and everyone lived in Rome during Pax Romana. Thank you for correcting me.
