Facebook will notify users whose accounts intelligence services of a country are being analyzed
The notice does not mean that the account has been hacked, they can jump out when the servers of the network are receiving many requests for access to that account that is, that a program is trying to test several passwords- Facebook perceived or when there is some sort of malware installed on the user’s phone.
The notice alerting of such problems will be well
The announcement of this measure is surprising, especially because it demonstrates the ability Facebook to distinguish between a security problem created by ordinary hackers and other organizations undertaken by a state salary. How you can discriminate in this regard? Facebook does not let go or turn, since according Stamos says, disclosing this information could compromise the security of the network.
Another grim reality revealed by this new feature is that very probably in the past there have been massive attacks of various governments. Mark Zuckerberg and his people will relate to the goings of the NSA, the intelligence agency of the US government famous for its shares of digital espionage? Or conversely thinks the authorities of North Korea or China

What Facebook is not clear what should be done when an alert is received well. Change Password? Install a virus on your phone? Delete the entire mobile phone to eliminate any sophisticated malware program? Call the police?
Cases like the North Korean attack employees of Sony, in which sensitive data that put the company on the brink, or allegations of spying on Edward Snowden leaked systematically carried out by the NSA make the necessary tool Facebook But who protects the current user of such attacks
