Frienditto

[Level - Public]

Nabbed this from [livejournal.com profile] sapphrine... please take note. TELL ME if you're using Frienditto. Quoted from [livejournal.com profile] sapphrine:

"Please all go to the following link and read the information on Frienditto and what it does and then check your friendslist for vulnerabilities. I have worked it through and there is no one on my friendslist currently who is a confirmed user of this product however, if you do use it, i would really appreciate it if you tell me about it please. If I was to ever find any of my friends limited entries up publicly archived I would not be impressed."

LOOK HERE

Only if you have a friends only / special setting type post and one of the people who can see that post has joined frienditto. It stores any entries they have access to.

Very bad basically.

I friends lock posts because of details I don't wish to disclose. Frienditto stores the information on servers even if any posts it's had access to are subsequently destroyed.

For an example, if anyone on my friends list has joined Frienditto, my mailing address and telephone numbers are now available to anyone on Frienditto, despite me locking those details on a friends only post.
