Social networking site Facebook has admitted its cookies could have been used to track people after they had logged out of the service, adding that the company has now fixed the problem.
Australian technologist Nik Cubrilovic recently claimed that when the user is logged out of Facebook, rather than deleting its tracking cookies, the site merely modifies them, maintaining account information and other unique tokens that can be used to identify its users.
