Facebook source code compromised

The source code for facebook was made availanble at http://facebooksecrets.blogspot.com/ by a unknown blogger. I am hoping that next time users will think twice before providing personal information to a website . I am all for web communities but unless you are careful about what you post , sometimes a simple comment might come and bite you in the ass ! .  We are prone to make mistakes while speaking but it is possible to correct it without causing do much damage but once something is out on on the internet it will be impossible to correct it . So when you are publishing personal content or disclosing personal information think about it .  Simple questions might help

• Will you accept your comments when you read it after 10 years ?
• you might be a engineer now but you might lead a large organization in the future so would you still write it ?
• your children might read your blog and worse still your parents might be reading it now !

Anyway this is the official response from facebook published at http://www.techcrunch.com/2007/08/11/facebook-source-code-leaked/

“A small fraction of the code that displays Facebook web pages was exposed to a small number of users due to a single misconfigured web server that was fixed immediately. It was not a security breach and did not compromise user data in any way. Because the code that was released only powers the Facebook user interface, it offers no useful insight into the inner workings of Facebook. The reprinting of this code violates several laws and we ask that people not distribute it further.”
