Facebook accidentally leaks analytics reports to app testersJune 23 (AZINS) In yet another case of mishandling data, Facebook accidentally leaked analytics reports from app developers. A Facebook App Analytics summary email was mistakenly sent to app testers instead of just developers.

The summary contained private data including weekly average users, pageviews, and new users, Engadget reported. While Facebook confirmed that three percent of apps' summaries were shared owing to an error in the mail delivery system, no personal information about the users was revealed.

Facebook will also start rolling out autoplaying video ads on Messenger. At the moment, ads are rolling out to a small group of users and will have a global release soon. Facebook said in a statement provided to Quartz, “We will be rolling out video ads gradually and thoughtfully. People that use Messenger each month are our top priority and they will remain in control of their experience.” People on Facebook will be able to “remain in control of their experience”.

However, users will not be able to opt out of Messenger ads completely. They will be able to hide a given ad, report it, or manage targeting preferences, similar to the other apps by the company.

Recently, Facebook said that it is offering a series of new formats for its online video platform including interactive game shows, quizzes and polls. The new formats will be available to those creating video content on the social network, which is searching for a niche to compete against rivals ranging from Netflix to Google-owned YouTube.
