Following a massive data breach first reported on by The Wall Street Journal, *Google announced today that it is shutting down its social network Google+ for consumers*. The company finally admitted that Google+ never received the broad adoption or engagement with users that it had hoped for -- according to a blog post, 90 percent of Google+ user sessions last for less than five seconds. In light of these newly revealed security concerns with Google+'s API, the company has opted to put it out of its misery rather than try and make the social network more secure. https://engt.co/2C67goX
