Facebook bans KDE application,Delete Photos
The KIPI (KDE Image Plugin Interface) Plugin is a common plugin structure used by many KDE applications to share image plugins among graphic libraries. Many KDE applications such as Gwenview, Digikam and KPhotoAlbum uses the KIPI plugins to upload photos to social networking sites like Facebook. Now, it seems like Facebook has banned KIPI. When users try to upload images using any application using the KIPI plugin they are getting an “Invalid API key” error message.
If you’re lucky enough to have eluded this incident because you’re not using any KDE app, don’t think that all your data is safely intact. You should be aware that this kind of error could potentially happen to any file that is stored in a shared space.
Just remember that it’s still best practice to keep local backups and never assume that once it’s on Facebook, it’s there forever.
