9to5Mac on Felix Krause’s article on in app-browsers like those in Facebook and Instagram are a big privacy risk

Ben Lovejoy at 9to5Mac has this very interesting article on in-app browsers in Facebook and Instagram, where the companies insert javascript into the page and can literally see everything you do and type including passwords.

It comes from this article by Felix Krause.

Honestly the only thing I see that could help this if Apple put a stop to this. And honestly from a privacy perspective this should not be allowed by law, but congress is too technologically incompetent to ever understand something like this.

And I like that the article includes code you can put into your web site to trick META into thinking it has already inserted it’s code.
