Meta Fixes Facebook Bug That Sent Automatic Friend Requests

Facebook has fixed a bug that caused the social network to send automatic friend requests to users when they visited any profile. The bug was first reported on Friday, and Meta apologized for the inconvenience it caused.

“We fixed a bug related to a recent app update that caused some Facebook friend requests to be sent mistakenly,” a Meta spokesperson said. “We’ve stopped this from happening and we apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.”
