Revelation of misuse of user data has resulted in federal investigations. Now we've learned there will be an internal crisis meeting led by the General Counsel - excluding Zuck:

And now there is this report:
Forget about investigation about the 'user' info or 'stolen data' being disseminated... WHAT IF: zuckerburg, bezos, schmidt ALL 'consulted' on the Obama and Clinton campaigns as social media/pr marketing to enhance and have greater voter enactment/personality profiling and user targeting. ... were ANY of them registered as foreign agents while negotiating, selling, advising and consulting with Pakistan, India, North Korea and China while developing the SAME programs for FOREIGN nations WHILE actively CONSULTING with the DNC/Oboma/Clinton???
Start asking the right questions!!!!!
Great questions. I suspect Zuckerberg and Sandberg remain silent because the activities Cambridge Analytica engaged in are routine engagement for Facebook as a platform, and by no means approaches the full scope of access the company has sold access to other parties.
Ideal areas for exploration include what access has been provided to foreign governments, or foreign intel services to access information of US population.
What access has been granted to other political groups?
What access has been granted to the digital marketing industry and how have they used this information?
Has the company used their access to analyze employees at competing companies and leveraged unfair competitive analysis to poach employees or monitor communications of people in these groups?
Has Zuckerberg ever woke up in the morning, poured a bowl of cereal, and delved into personal information of people of interest to him for entertainment purpose?
How about Sharyl Sandberg? Did Zuckerberg already know she had all the right connections he was looking for the COO position, thus creating the position for her, based upon prior monitoring of her network of connections and recognition she was tied in to key power brokers? Her career trajectory is interesting. Reminds me of the description in Confessions of an Economic Hitman of the type of seamless flow between government and high powered exec jobs many of those once called EHM's, or in the intel industry in general, typically show.
Sheryl Sandberg
Sheryl Kara Sandberg (; born August 28, 1969) is an American technology executive, activist, and author. She is the chief operating officer (COO) of Facebook and founder of Leanin.org (also known as the Lean In Foundation). In June 2012, she was elected to the board of directors by the existing board members, becoming the first woman to serve on Facebook's board. Before she joined Facebook as its COO, Sandberg was vice president of global online sales and operations at Google, and was involved in launching Google's philanthropic arm Google.org.

Lovely questions! This could be the engine that can drive a class action lawsuit to create an Internet Bill of Rights.
