| This is the Facebook login box presented by Spotify for “Connect with Facebook” menu option on Windows 7. |
This might be a secure Facebook login using OAUTH and SSL and it might not be.
Here is what’s wrong:
- No browser bar – cannot confirm which (or IF) that is one of my browsers presenting the window, and if the connection is secure.
- No response to right-click, so I could try to be geeky and confirm anything about that content.
Here is what I believe:
- This is simply an internal browser instance presented by the Spotify Windows application.
Here is what they could do:
- Simply collect and store my Facebook login information.
I’m not saying they would do that, but I’m not going to type my credentials into this box just because of the principle of the matter. Spotify is used by millions — I think they should avoid being sloppy programmers.
