Siva Vaidhyanathan, The Guardian; Facebook's privacy meltdown after Cambridge Analytica is far from over
"Facebook might not be run by Bond villains. But it’s run by people
who have little knowledge of or concern for democracy or the dignity of
the company’s 2.3 billion users.
The privacy meltdown story should be about how one wealthy and
powerful company gave our data without our permission to hundreds of
companies with no transparency, oversight, or even concern about abuse.
Fortunately, the story does not end with Cambridge Analytica. The United States government revealed on Wednesday that it had opened a criminal investigation into Facebook over just these practices."
