I don't know if they still do, but Facebook used to count viewing a web page with a Facebook "like" button as being an active user

Twitter has always been "small" but popular with people who work in the media, so you hear it mentioned on the same level as Facebook by those people, even though it's never been any where near the same size

What does the Amazon App have that the website doesn't? I've just been using the website, now I'm wondering what I'm missing out on

Basic cyber security says that passwords should be encrypted and hashed, so that even the company storing them doesn't know what the password is. (When you log in, the site performs the same encrypting and hashing steps and compares the results) Otherwise if they are hacked, the attackers get access to all the passwords.

I've noticed a few companies ask for specific characters of my password to prove who I am (eg enter the 2nd and 9th character)

Is there any secure way that this could be happening? Or are the companies storing my password in plain text?
