"Facebook Confirms Bug That Activated iOS Cameras"

It has been discovered that there is a new bug affecting Facebook's iOS application.  While using Facebook's iOS app, it activates the iPhone owners’ cameras while they scroll through their news feeds.  The bug started when the company tried fixing an issue, with the way Facebook’s iOS app launched. A Facebook representative commented that  "They inadvertently introduced a bug that caused the app to partially navigate to the camera screen adjacent to News Feed when users tapped on photos. We have seen no evidence of photos or videos being uploaded due to this bug.”  Facebook has reported the bug to Apple to be fixed.  Even though this was a mistake, it is causing users of Facebook to be more worried about their privacy.
