Facebook Admits It Gave Netflix, Spotify Special Access to User Messages
Social network says it only gave access to messages after users had consented by logging in with a partner’s appThe Times reported Tuesday evening that Facebook gave privileged access to user messages, allowing companies like Spotify and Netflix to read, write or delete conversations on the social network. Facebook, in its response, said it only allowed partner companies to view private messages once users had signed into Facebook using the partner’s app — granting them permission to their messages in the process.
“Did partners get access to messages? Yes. But people had to explicitly sign in to Facebook first to use a partner’s messaging feature,” Konstantinos Papamiltiadis, director of developer platforms and programs at Facebook, wrote in the blog post.
“Take Spotify for example. After signing in to your Facebook account in Spotify’s desktop app, you could then send and receive messages without ever leaving the app. Our API provided partners with access to the person’s messages in order to power this type of feature.”

Facebook allegedly gave Netflix creepy privileges
As spotted via Gizmodo, a letter was filed on April 14 in relation to a class-action antitrust suit that was filed by Meta customers, accusing Meta of anti-competitive practices that harm social media competition and consumers. The letter, made public Saturday, asks a court to have Reed Hastings, Netflix's founder and former CEO, respond to a subpoena for documents that plaintiffs claim are relevant to the case. The original complaint filed in December 2020 [PDF] doesn’t mention Netflix beyond stating that Facebook “secretly signed Whitelist and Data sharing agreements” with Netflix, along with “dozens” of other third-party app developers. The case is still ongoing.The letter alleges that Netflix's relationship with Facebook was remarkably strong due to the former's ad spend with the latter and that Hastings directed "negotiations to end competition in streaming video" from Facebook.

Cybertruck Turns Into Large Metal Brick After Going Through Car Wash
"Damage caused by car washes is not covered by the warranty."
As one recent owner found out, even a car wash was able to defeat the 6,600-pound pickup. As spotted by Jalopnik, a routine visit through a car wash to get sand off the truck after a beach visit seemingly caused the entire vehicle to shut down. The center console went blank, turning the stainless steel monstrosity into a giant brick.
"I'm about two and half months in and 3,400 miles," TikTok user captain.ad said in a recent video, "and it's not working right now."
After holding down two buttons on the steering wheel to reset the screen, the dashboard made a strange noise.
