It has been reported that developer and digital explorer Jane Manchun Wong has discovered an unnerving “feature” in Facebook’s giant’s smart display. Wong has successfully added another user’s photo album to her own Portal’s Superframe. The problem is Facebook states that a person can only add photo albums to Portal’s screensaver that are part of their Facebook account. Wong reported this to Facebook, but she says the company doesn’t “think this is a security vulnerability.”
