WhatsApp and Twitter too. But risk is lower than facebook.

@dessert Spying and Phishing at the same time.

I used to think that FB must have their servers in US but they have in Dublin.

Videonauth

servers in dublin are normal for many companies, mircrosoft too as they exploit tax this way

Kulfy

@Videonauth But according to this Microsoft has servers in US

Videonauth

when you call microsoft from europe you end up on servers in dublin

Kulfy

Fun Fact: Microsoft is more phishing than Facebook xD

@Videonauth Oh I see. I've never been to Europe.
