coComment Security and Privacy
We were alerted to a potential risk over the weekend thanks to the diligence of two users. Many thanks to Tom Biro (Click Here)
and John Ratcliffe-Lee (Click Here).
Although, as was pointed out, this shouldn’t happen and site security policy should prevent it we would just like to remind users that we do provide privacy solutions to protect you.
We allow you to Blacklist any site to prevent coComment storing any comments you enter there. We also offer you the option to recommend the site for inclusion in the global blacklist. No comments for any site on the global blacklist will be stored by coComment for any user.
The functionality looks like this:
Select Blacklist (highlighted in the screen grab) and the Blacklist dialogue window opens. You can then Blacklist that site for yourself and/or also recommend that the site be blacklisted for all users.
As ever, would be delighted to get your feedback on any improvement you think we could make here.
Happy, and safe, commenting.
The coComment Team
