Facebook is under fire yet again this time for invading its members privacy it turns out that the social media giant could have been sneakily as a i phones camera while using the facebook app at least thats the case if youre using it on an i phone our team is trying to chavez explains. I phone users beware it appears that a system bug is allowing facebook to access users i phone cameras while theyre using the facebook app scrolling through their feed the news now sparking fierce reaction to that number is right facebook users took to twitter saying that their phone cameras were activated automatically whenever they were using the facebook app thats an invasion of my privacy i mean this is a media we dont do that one user Joshua Maddox tweeted out this video showing that when he scrolled through his social media feed the app would actively use the camera he said found a facebook security. And privacy issue when the app is opened it actively uses the camera i found a bug in the app that lets you see the camera open behind your feed note that i have a camera pointed at the carpet earlier this month several other users spot of the bug one user posted this video and said today while watching a video on facebook i rotated to landscape and could see the Facebook Instagram story you i for a split 2nd when rotating back to portrait the story camera at you i opened entirely a little worrying facebook confirmed a bug in the latest version of the i o. S. App the company said in a statement we recently discovered that version 244. 00 of the facebook i. O. s app would incorrectly launch in landscape mode in fixing that issue last week in v 246. 00 launched on november 8th we inadvertently introduced a bug that caused the app to partially navigate to the cameras accounts yeah i might be thinking of closing my account i dont like my rights being violated it makes me want to shut off facebook i dont want anybody getting its my private information like that thats invasive absolutely not meantime until the fix is completely approved experts are warning users to revoke a camera access for the facebook app until the update is available now this is just the latest scandal that facebook is battling as it tries to win back the trust of its users after a series of privacy scandals that have occurred in recent years including ease dropping on its users through phone microphones in order to better target advertising all of the company has repeatedly denied those allegations reporting in new york to live each of us are to. See other people said they were mad theyre going to get rid of facebook or will they the World Entertainment is in iraq this week for the launch of the new streaming Service Disney plus in the u. S. Canada and the netherlands Tuesday Morning users flock to their streaming devices to log in for the 1st time you know the disney people but what brought. Him to the house of mouses new platform how big was it wall when they get this the Company Announced they had reached 10000000 users in just 24 hours that is a metric that analysts report took h. B. O. Now 4 years to reach this is been a huge winner for disney with their stock price increasing by 11 points this week meanwhile starwars streaming giant netflix witness a drop of as much as 12 points this week so what does the plus mean for the streaming landscape and really more importantly here what does that hold for the future of the sector what does that future look like boom us producer joins us now to talk about this brett obviously youre a fan of business thats right you have one of them a bit of media this is one of those people who got into the 1000000 but look it seems like disney plus other than a couple Little Things here in the very beginning they roll this out the right way yeah absolutely i mean look its an easy winner they have generations of support from people around since the fiftys making great content actually before them but making great content and all of that all of that but most of that content is available on their service so its easy for people to sign up get in and they offer these great deals 1st off its only 699. 00 to start if you just want to pay right out of pocket but if you have drives an unlimited subscriber here in the states or abroad you can get it for free for a whole year and let me just say when you have kids ready to do so they all know it isnt if theyre watching their disney their marvel their cartoons whatever they might be watching and then a year olds by the you get that free. Deal wears off sure you think you have trouble at home if you try to read it i think you might so i think thats where there is like a drug dealer the 1st place totally free and then after that and only glitches thing i think that really helped them out too is it worked pretty well on day one you know there are some crashes you know we kind of have a little bit of an issue and one of the big ones they had was with the simpsons because they require that during the 20th Century Acquisition or 20th century fox acquisition well those episodes are now all cropped and do a widescreen format rather than the normal 43 format so those fans are a little upset but mostly went very smoothly and everybody is able to watch the content they want yeah absolutely. Some now more than 10000000 american cable and satellite sky have actually left their Services Since 2012 so why does mean and the new players and streaming that includes like hulu netflix amazon prime what are they doing to cable and well theyre hurting them like you said theyre losing 10 or theyve lost 10000000. 00 subscribers so far and thats all going to continue no i dont know that disney plus plays that big of a role in all of this because its very nice kind of like the Old School Netflix was when it started it has a lot of great content but you know if you want live sports or Something Like that youre going to have to go elsewhere there are a couple of things to point out here and i wanted to make this i took some notes here the average cable subscription costs about 107. 00 per month if you have Amazon Prime Video h. B. O. Now netflix hulu and disney plus youre only misspent 60. 00 a month but if you dont care about Live Entertainment or live news you could do that for almost half the price now i think theres a big one that were going to see thats going to actually hurt our Cable Providers is h. B. O. Max yeah theyre going to watch in may of 2020 and what theyre doing is theyre giving a deal where you get it for free if you have h. B. O. Now which is like h. B. O. Go comes from your cable subscriber and you have a cable subscription but you get it because if you like it well yeah but h. B. O. Now youre buying it directly through h. B. O. So the theory here is that what theyre trying to do is to couple themselves a little bit from that Cable Provider because why do they want 34 5. 00 for each subscription when they can get all 15 from every single one and i think that could really hurt the cable subscriber yeah you know its really interesting because this is the obviously has the catalog right of content and before doing this as you said theyve already acquired the simpsons they took over the Star Wars Franchise is a marvel franchise i mean theres so much content that disney holds but doesnt that up the game for everybody else in terms of the need to invest i mean netflix was already investing billions on apple plus just up the amount that theyre looking for in terms of original content to 6000000000. 00 its a good time to be a constant creator absolutely but of course theres only so much could cut that i mean when we thought that before but now look how much great content there is british. All over but i think one of the issues that youre also seeing here is look at those it will go back to the Cable Companies look at them comcast they are purchasing they purchased universal they purchased n. B. C. So they have now theyre going hey we might have to get subscribers on on our systems however we can still provide that content and they got involved with warner and h. B. O. And so theyre doing the same thing so there is i mean this is a boon for the Entertainment Industry and i dont think its slowing down i mean obviously youve seen the next netflix way in and a little bit because they dont want to they dont want to spend as much money because sometimes things are really waiting for im sure one remember 2 in d. C. Universal going to have their own streaming and theyve already taken the office back in f. L. Its number one show on netflix is the office which who would have thunk that you know i dont know how an h. B. O. Bought up there but friends they bought a southpark from hulu so and those are the big 500000000. 00 deals i mean thats a big deal yeah absolutely r. T. Producer brant warr thanks so much for your time thank you. Another big step for blocking technologies as walmart canada which as the name suggests is walmarts Canadian Branch has rolled out a block chain based network for the freight and tracking payment management this is one of the very best examples of a non currency application for block because it allows Companies Like walmart to track supply chains and logistics data in real time aggregating the data between walmart canada and its a 3rd party trucks on a shared ledger according to john bayliss the senior v.
