Shadow Profiles on Facebook




The issue of data security and internet privacy has escalated to unimaginable levels. Facebook is collecting information and creating "shadow profiles" of people who have not signed up to use the platform. The presence of shadow profiles becomes evident when new users sign up to use Facebook for the first time. The expectation is that Facebook knows nothing about the new users but on signing up, suggestions of friends appear.
