You should remove the Facebook button from the Plesk. It is not about whether or not Facebook violates anything. It is all about feeling secure in using the Plesk software. That Facebook button equals tracking and privacy violation for me, whether they do it or not.

Is something like this what you are looking for?http://download1.parallels.net/Plesk/PP11/11.5/Doc/en-US/online/plesk-linux-advanced-administration-guide/index.htm?fileName=70928.htm

Please Remove the Facebook iframe and replace it with an Image, I hate it if the social net can track me...

Hello Sergey,

I can recommend this comment about a related issue on WordPress's trac https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/26072#comment:44

Note the included link to Wikipedia.

As for the link - it is article of 2011. Given amount of Plesk in Europe and Germany specifically, it seems much unlikely that all those companies, with their lawyers and legal departments were violating the law for 4 years and never told us that.

If you bring more substantional point into the discussion, we are ready to take it into account. Otherwise, given that the previous request has never gained sufficient votes, will have to close this one too by merging it into the first one.

Thanks for the link, but your comment doesn't actually answer why disabling the widget isn't a solution.

Hello Sergey,

I'm not talking about Plesk-Cookies, but cookies the response for the iframe will set.

The status of facebook tracking cookies is disputed in EU countries (undisputed officially "not okay" in Germany, see http://www.zdnet.com/article/germany-facebook-like-button-violates-privacy-laws/#!). Some sites use a seperate button that will then be replaced with social media buttons that hit external resources. Maybe that or a static button is something that you'd consider.

This issue could become quite ugly for german (and other) hosts using Plesk in its default configuration.

Tracking does not belong on every page of a backend panel, especially if you're paid for delivering it. It probably violates a EU data protection guidelines too (sets cookies, tracks pageviews, tracks you across sites, is not opt in). New suggestion since the other was discarded as "you can just remove it".

we not pay you for we can do it anytime , just remove the crap
it has nothing to do with control or maintain a server.

i said remove , not to disable it in a unwanted way.

Either start with it off as the default or put it as a setting within the panel... why do we have to address this security issue by editing config files?

You can do it in any time:
