But many Facebook users do not feel safe to add their profile pictures to Facebook. Through a research, it has been learned from various security agencies and common people, that some women have decided not to attach any of their faces to the Internet. Because, they are always worried about the security of their attached pictures on the Internet.

It is also said, "These tools of Facebook are being used very large in India. In other countries like India, we also want to expand these tools, where Facebook users want more control over their profile pictures. At the same time, we are trying to add more features, through which Facebook users can design their profile pictures according to their preferences.
It has been found in the study that its designs play an important role in preventing misuse of profile pictures.

Users with new features will receive the controls
Facebook users will see instructions on how to turn on Special Profile Picture Guard Option. Other users will not be able to download or share your profile picture if you use this guard picture. Anyone outside your Facebook Friendlist can not tag themselves or anyone else in your profile picture.

A blue border and shield will be shown in your profile picture as a security signal.

Facebook is now giving less time to people

Tech Blog: Facebook can not hold people's attraction? At least the latest situation says that. A few months ago, Facebook became worried about not having time to give people time on this platform. People are actually giving time on Facebook less. The latest survey conducted by Nielsen, a renowned surveyor, has come to the fore.

In November last year, Nielsen's information was analyzed by software provider Pivotal. According to that data, the total time spent on Facebook dropped 4 percent. Facebook's status worsened in December. At that time, the total time spent on Facebook's main platform was reduced by 18 percent. This is a big change since the previous month. According to Pivotal data, the rate of time of every person on Facebook decreased by 24 percent. Instagram users like Facebook have reduced the activation. The time spent by each person at Instagram decreased by 9 percent.

In all, there has been a huge problem for Facebook. On one hand, on the one hand, on the one hand, people are giving less time to the same time. The reason for this may be the change in Facebook's recent algorithm. Facebook has changed its newsfeed to Facebook Show friends and family posts rather than show the news. However, Facebook chief executive Mark Zuckerberg asked to accept such a change. But the number of people losing the attraction to Facebook is proof of this.

If this trend continues, people's interest from Facebook-Google will be seen on the other side. But the question is, who will take the place of Facebook? References: Fastcompanies.

Edwardso Severin, Dustin Moskovsky and Chris Hughes, a computer science student, stayed in the same room with Mark Zuckerberg while studying at Harvard University. Facebook has established four matches

Who is this Chris Hughes? Many of them know as US technology entrepreneurs. Currently working on reducing the financial inequality of US citizens. His full name is Christopher Chris Hughes. Born on 26 November 1983. He grew up in North Carolina Hikori. He graduated from Phillips Academy in Andover in Massachusetts. In 2002 he was admitted to Harvard. After working with Zuckerberg, he worked for Facebook in the early days of Facebook. At that time, his job was to test the test version of Facebook and give advice about the product. He brought many popular Facebook features. With the help of his hand, the start of the journey to the global world of Facebook. In 2004, Hughes, Zuckerberg and Moskovic traveled to Palo Alto on a summer vacation. After that holiday, Zuckerberg and Moskovic Palo go from Alto and Hughes decided to continue studying at Harvard. In 2006, he graduated in history and literature. He then joined Zuckerberg again. But in 2007, Hughes favored Facebook and Barack Obama joined the campaign in 2008. From 2012 to 2016, he was the editor and publisher of The New Republic. He recently wrote the book 'Fair Shot: The Rethinking Inequality and How We Aron'.
Chris recently discussed the book with Business Insider. There he described the story of owning 2 percent of Facebook. Chris said that Facebook was known as the online social directory. He was the first spokesman of the site. With Zuckerberg, Moscowov, Savirin and Andrew McCallam, Harvard lived in the same room of Dormitory. Facebook started its journey from the room. Currently, his work has been the source of inspiration for some of the important talk of his time with Zuckerberg on a rainy night in March 2004, some time spent with him. Since that talk, his life began to take a turn on the other side. The results of that night meeting came eight years later. Chris became a millionaire in 2012. Chris, the owner of almost half a million dollars, goes to the forest.

Chris wrote in his book, he was one of the four who helped to make Zuckerberg's Facebook dream a reality. Only three years on Facebook could afford. But in those three years Facebook had played a very important role for him. Facebook was responsible for watching the marketing and media of her.

Hughes said that many small decisions and small talk could separate people from others. This happened in a talk with Zuckerberg. A few months after Facebook's establishment, he and Zuckerberg went out together. Facebook shares share sharing. Before negotiating that night, Hughes worked at the 10 dollar deal with the Hicks House Library. His job was to check whether students' IDs are correct. At the time, they discussed various aspects of Facebook in the AOL instant messenger. Talks about reaching schools in Harvard, to reach Facebook. Hughes favors ownership on Facebook.

Zuckerberg calls Hughes for face-to-face talk Hughes goes out of the rain because of rain At that time, Zarbarga was standing on the road to Harvard's Dormitory. Both of them wanted their talk so that no one listened. So under the same roof, two walks in the rain. Hughes said to go out of the gate, he must pay 10 percent of his Facebook ownership. The two started bargaining. At that time Hughes was helping the user's user experience. In addition to working on Facebook's marketing and media expansion. He felt that seeking 10% of Facebook's ownership might be an ambassador but not unreasonable.

Hughes wrote in the book, Zuckerberg did not accept his claim. Said, 'I appreciate your work.' But if Facebook is bigger, then with more guarantees of income, it is important to have control over Facebook. Because, in favor of sharing fair share of other co-founders Hughes became silent in the words of Zuckerberg He did not want to turn another conversation in the conversation. Understand the importance of discussion to accept Zuckerberg's words.

Hughes was hesitant at this time. Zuckerberg was not very confident about the request. Because he did not have a direct role on Facebook, he knew that. So Zakarbarga could not force ownership. Zuckerberg said on his walk, that he should be given as a share on Facebook which Zuckerberg considered to be good. Zuckerberg said that he would talk about the matter. Shortly after, Hughes saw that Zuckerberg gave him 2 percent of Facebook's ownership. Among the co-founders of Facebook, Hughes's share was the lowest.

But those 2 percent of Facebook or less? When Facebook released IPO in 2012, Hughes went on to own 500 million US dollars. So Hughes said that the small talk of that day, despite the temporary failure of the incident in bargaining, a successful event in his life.
