驚呆了！臉書承認和華爲共享用戶數據！
Facebook Inc has said it has data-sharing partnerships with at least four Chinese companies including Huawei, the world's third largest smartphone maker, which has come under scrutiny from US intelligence agencies on security concerns.
臉書公司表示，它與至少四家中國公司建立了數據共享的合作伙伴關係，其中包括世界第三大智能手機制造商華爲，而華爲因安全問題正處於美國情報機構的監視中。
The social media company said Huawei, computer maker Lenovo Group, and smartphone makers OPPO and TCL Corp were among about 60 companies worldwide that received access to some user data after they signed contracts to re-create Facebook-like experiences for their users.

Members of Congress raised concerns after the media reported on the practice on Sunday, saying data of users' friends could have been accessed without their explicit consent.
媒體於星期天報道了這一情況之後，這引起了國會議員們的擔憂，他們表示，用戶朋友們的數據可能會在他們未明確同意的情況下被訪問。
Facebook denied that and said the data access was to allow its users to access account features on mobile devices.
臉書公司否定了這一說法稱，數據訪問是爲了讓其用戶可以使用移動設備上的賬戶功能。
More than half of the partnerships have already been wound down, Facebook said.
