Google+ data security updates

Google+ data leak will the platform be closed, after more user data is open.
This news has been confirmed by Google through a blog post.An API update will be
made for the service G +, from Google, there is no user data that is misused
or also password leaks or user data that uses the details directly.

But there are concerns that theoretically malicious users can use details
to trick the original user into submitting details.

Data that may leak may include real name, age, and email address. Even if users

have set their profile to private, they will still be affected.

Since the news was broadcast on Monday December 10, leading publications have
reminded users that companies like Google will never ask for personal details
via email and we must remember and be careful about this.

What does Google say?

David Thacker, vice president of Product Management in G Suite, published
a blog post entitled 'Speeding up changes to Google+'.

It read: "In October, we announced that we would enjoy the consumer version
of Google+ and API because of the significant challenges involved in maintaining
successful products that meet consumer expectations, and low platform usage.

"We recently decided that some users were affected by software updates introduced
 in November that contained bugs that affected the Google+ API.

"We found this bug as part of our standard and continuous testing procedures and
corrected it within a week after it was introduced."


The statement, in an effort to convince users, continued: "There is no third
party that jeopardizes our system, and we have no evidence that application developers
who accidentally have this access for six days know or abuse it in any way."

"With the discovery of this new bug, we have decided to accelerate the termination
of all Google+ APIs; this will happen in the next 90 days. "He added: "We have also
decided to accelerate Google+ consumer sunsetting from August 2019 to April 2019.
While we realize there are implications for developers, we want to ensure the
protection of our users."

Hopefully the system will return to healthier and users will be more comfortable
using this G+ platform without worrying about data leakage issues
