Facebook's new tool to tell you your 'real friends'

Social networking giant Facebook has introduced a new tool to help users decide who their real friends are, and who is just an acquaintance.

The social networking site introduced "Close Friends" and "Acquaintances" lists last year.

Now, by monitoring users' online interaction, the site will automatically suggest a list of friends who have not been contacted in a while to be demoted to 'acquaintances,' The New York Daily News reports.

On hitting the 'add to acquaintances' button, you will still be Facebook "friends" with that person, and they will never find out that they've been downgraded.

You will just see fewer of their posts in your feed, the report said. You can also keep acquaintances from getting all of your life updates in the future.

When you are sharing something new on Facebook, hit the button to the left of "Post" in the lower right-hand corner of the update box, it should say "Public" or "Friends," depending on your default settings, the choose "Friends except Acquaintances."

Though the acquaintance list feature has existed since last fall, Facebook has just started recommending "friends" you might not want to hear from for a while.

According to the report, to use this feature, one has to navigate to the "Friends" page, select the "Acquaintances" list, and then click on "See All Suggestions."

How To Access Deleted Photos on Facebook

Deleted photos can be simply accessed if you know URL of the image which has been deleted from the Facebook Server. To get a proof follow the following steps:-

1. First of all, open Facebook image in New Tab which you want to delete.
2. Copy URL of the image from address bar and paste it in Notepad.
3. Now Right Click on it and select Copy Image URL and paste it in Notepad. (We will
use this URL later)
4. Delete the Photo.
5. Now Paste the URL in the address bar which you copied in 2nd step. You will see
an error message This Content is Currently Unavailable.
6. Now to Access Deleted Photo paste the URL in the address bar which you have
copied in 3rd step.

So, if anyone knows the URL of the photo then he can easily access your deleted photos.

Why Facebook Images are Available After Deletion?

Facebook works on Continent Distribution Network known as CDN to give quick and easy access to its users. When an image and video is uploaded then many copies of same photo or video becomes available on local servers. When a user deletes a photo or video from his account then it is deleted from the Facebook’s main server but remains available on other server for 30 months (2.5 Years) and user’s can access deleted photo and video.

Beware!! Deleted Images Can be Accessed on Facebook

If you are the power user on Facebook and share your personal information like photos, videos on it then beware you may be under threat. When a user upload any photo or video, it automatically gets syndicated to multiple facebook servers without user’s to enable quickly access and it may be accessed even after the deletion. It is a major loophole in the Facebook’s privacy.
