Google+ bug gave developers access to non-public data from 52.5M users
Google+ was a bit of a disaster for the company when it was still alive, and now that it's walking dead, it's becoming even more of a stone around its neck. Today, the company announced a new privacy hole, one that it found last month, that left some data from about 52.5 million users up for grabs from apps that used the Google+ API. Because every bug seems to move up the Google+ shutdown date, Google also today announced that the service will now close in April 2019.
