The Facebook social networking site now offers secure data transmissions via SSL, not only during log-in, but also for all its other pages. This means that even cookies are now transmitted in encrypted form and can no longer be read and exploited for fraudulent activities by attackers using such tools as Firesheep.[/quote]

Time to change my bookmark to https then. About time.
Oh what, it still reverts back to http for me?
Ah:
[quote]To access all pages via SSL, users must manually enable the HTTPS option in their Facebook account settings. However, the SSL activation has one drawback: it doesn't work with all third-party Facebook applications. In the coming week, Facebook plans to offer the option to all its users worldwide. While users in the US already have access to the option, it was not yet available for UK or German user accounts when tested this morning (Thursday).[/quote]

I read that uses the same code base as No-Script so you shouldn't use both at the same time.
And how the hell do you even enable it? Couldn't find it :colbert:
Facebook seems to be a not so good idea as time goes on

Ha Facebook apps I just removed all the ones I've accentually signed up for because those are the only ones that I had and they pissed me off for no reason. I really don't need to play farmville when I'm on my gaming rig and can just play Minecraft or something.
