Cases of sexual abuse of minors by strangers over the internet rife in almost every part of the world. Most of the actors know and interact with the victim through Facebook. In order to prevent untoward incidents, there is a Facebook application that can detect the presence of pedophiles.
Today's teens have more virtual friends on social networking site Facebook than friends in the real world. It is common for teenagers if 1,000 people have more friends on Facebook. Most of them have never met in real life.
To
guard against any possibility of bad that can happen, researchers at
Ben-Gurion University of the Negev (BGU) in Israel to develop
applications for Facebook users and parents to filter out the
possibility of many pedophiles cyber friends with just one click.
This application has three different levels of filtering your friends. The first level identifies Facebook friends that have the potential to be a threat and limited access to view profiles. Second, expanding Facebook's privacy settings based on different usage profiles. Third, warned of a number of applications installed that are supposed to access the account owner's personal information.
This
software analyzes your friends on Facebook to distinguish the relations
of friendship based on the number of messages sent, pictures that are
tagged along, the group that followed and the many friends who belong
together.
The smaller the criteria established, the lower the level of friendship relations. This application is then signed up a few friends who have very low scores and recommend to unfriend her friends suspected.

pedophiles, but researchers found that these applications can also be
used to find people who have fake accounts. Researchers were inspired to make this application after seeing the profiles at several different social networking sites.
After
analyzing the image owner's account, investigators may find that the
images are displayed on the profile was derived from a different country
of origin where the account owner.
Parents and adolescents Facebook users generally find it difficult to find a way to set the privacy level. For
people who can not wait, this application can help alleviate
difficulties by limiting the interaction between friends on Facebook
directly.
"Our
application is the opposite of what Facebook wants. Service encourages
users to make friends with many people as possible, but we recommend
limiting the number of friends and give an algorithm to determine who
should be removed from the list of friends. But we believe that this
application be approved, "said Michael Fire, the originator of this application as reported by Medical Daily, Sunday (07/08/2012).
The application is called Social Privacy Protector (SPP) and is available in Mozilla Firefox browser to download. Currently, Facebook was reviewing whether the application is fit for use on the site.

There are features in this phone is pretty bright flashlight.
