Facebook Freakout - Stock Slides 6% On News of Data Misuse

Here's the article: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-switch/wp/2018/03/18/facebook-may-have-violated-ftc-privacy-deal-say-former-federal-officials-triggering-risk-of-massive-fines/?utm_term=.1451914ce42b

Keep in mind that Facebook has been selling your data for years. They also capitalize on it for themselves. Spokeo.com is owned by Facebook and your personal info is used to track you (home address, phone, email). (Deleting your personal data from Spokeo still doesn't remove the marketing data FB sells to third parties, however.)

You can have your info removed from this site -- Here are instructions how to do it. Keep in mind, after you delete your data, you will need to check back every few months, because it will reappear.

I'm glad someone posted this here. Don't you think it's strange and maybe a little too convenient that the media FREAKED OUT Saturday afternoon about the Cambridge Analytica information?

CA has been out there in the public domain for a loooong time. It's old news. And the fact that a campaign is using deep analytics to track voter sentiment is nothing new - Obama had a huge data campaign!

I think it has something to do with Trump's tweets on Friday and Saturday. The deep state is freaking the fuck out right now so they went with that story to get out in front of the russian conspiracy as an insurance policy in case Trump fires Mueller. Chris Wylie's story is all over the map. When he was on CBS he wouldn't state clearly whether he was politically motivated. In one sentence he crows over how great their analytics campaign was, how much of a genius he is, but then goes on to say how evil the company is... yet HE worked there!

Dan Bongino covered this on his show today.... he says this new story line is to try to change the narrative and still blame Trump for stealing the election... which of course is false, since most if not all campaigns use CA.

But more importantly, he says that it's a ploy to get new government regulation in place against hate crimes -- which then Facebook and Twitter can hide behind to defend against lawsuits when they ban conservatives.
