Fix Venmo Privacy Settings, Say EFF, Mozilla

PayPal should change its Venmo payment service’s privacy settings, urged Mozilla and the Electronic Frontier Foundation in an open letter Wednesday. “Make transactions private by default​ and​ give users privacy settings for their friend lists.” With users unable to hide their friend lists, “anyone can uncover who you pay regularly, creating a public record of your personal and professional community,” EFF said. The company didn’t comment.
