Mark Zuckerberg gave an interview with Harvard Law professor Jonathan Zittrai, where he described his attitude towards blockchain and its implementation in Facebook. He thinks that the blockchain technology could provide Facebook users with power to have an data access to third-party apps. Facebook blockchain team was formed in May last year, they were discovering the methods of implementing best solutions using the blockchain technology. One of those is login authentication. During the interview, he said such feature would replace Facebook Connect, as the system would allow users to pick and choose the apps which they trusted. The user may even limit the amount of data shared. Zuckerberg explained: “You basically take your information, you store it on some decentralized system and you have the choice of whether to log in in different places and you’re not going through an intermediary.” Some services have already developed such systems, yet the social network will look at it from a different point of view. However, Facebook CEO admitted that such decentralized access would mean that situations like happened with Cambridge Analytica may repeat.
