Two weeks ago a number of Facebook developers logged into the site to horrible news: their applications had suddenly been disabled without warning. The culprit was Facebook's spam-fighting bot, which automatically tracks the amount of negative feedback an application receives from users and blocks apps that are faring especially poorly (since they're probably spammy). But the bot was acting more aggressive than it should have been, and developers didn't have a way to tell how frequently users were blocking their app updates in the first place.Today, Facebook is rolling out some new features to address this.In a blog post announcing the news, Facebook engineer Mike Vernal writes that developers will now have access to a 'News Feed' tab as part of Facebook Insights (their analytics product).
