Facebook has added an unusual and frightening depending on its website, now offers since warn users when their account is subject to unauthorized access ... NSA! The social network is indeed one of the sites monitored by the US domestic security agency, monitoring the site says it wants to counter.


"Although
we have always taken steps to secure the account we think compromise,
we decided to include these additional warnings if we have good reason
to believe that an attack from the government," says Alex Stamos,
Director Safety on the Facebook blog. The affected users will therefore receive a specific notification
inviting them to secure their account: "we believe that your Facebook
account and your other online accounts can be subject to an attack by
government actors."
Facebook, however, does not specify the means of its own to determine the authors of an intrusion into account, especially to say that this is the NSA. The brand, however, indicates that such notifications will only be sent when sufficient evidence leading to this conclusion, including intrusions can come from malware installed on users' machines without their knowledge.
