Facebook to be fined $5bn for Cambridge Analytica privacy violations

The Federal Trade Commission has reportedly voted to approve fining Facebook roughly $5bn to settle an investigation into the company’s privacy violations that was launched following the Cambridge Analytica revelations.

The Wall Street Journal and the Washington Post, both citing anonymous sources familiar with the matter, reported Friday afternoon that the settlement was approved by a 3-2 vote that broke along party lines, with Republicans in favor and Democrats opposed. The justice department is expected make a final approval of the fine.

Facebook and the FTC declined to comment...

Democrats oppose Republicans. Republicans oppose Democrats. So it goes... so it goes... :tea:

I think Facebook should be fined in every jurisdiction they operate in, and that money should be returned directly to account holders. That would be c.$1000 for everyone with a Facebook account.

If they've got to pay they should pay it to the people who's personal and private info they hovered up and passed on to third parties for profit and gain. Why not start a Facebook campaign demanding reparations? Imagine what somebody in Bostwana could do with $1000.

A grand over there is a whole fucking truck full of hookers and blow, for a week.

Zucky got a bit big for his britches, started getting above his station. He had to be slapped down. Nice little company you got there, kid, be a shame if something happened to it. Gummint needs to wet it's beak.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

The great cultivation of our attention continues...
Facebook has launched its new dating service in the US. Sounds safe, right?

Facebook announced on Thursday it is rolling out its newest service across the US, a platform for dating. What could go wrong? A lot, it turns out.

The new service, Facebook Dating, can be accessed in the Facebook app but requires users to create a separate dating-specific profile. It then links users with potential matches based on location, indicated preferences, events attended, groups, and other factors. Facebook Dating will integrate with Instagram and offer a feature called Secret Crush, which allows users to compile a list of friends they have an interest in, to be matched with if the crush lists them as well.

Facebook has touted new privacy and security features within the dating service, including the ability for users to share plans and location with select friends when going on a date and allowing users to hide dating profiles from friends of friends to avoid disclosing sensitive information like sexual orientation...

Facebook spoke clearly for themselves in this award acceptance speech.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BBOO7cp ... e=youtu.be

It's Tommy Robinson, so many of you won't be allowed, but an interviewer asked a facebook official about why they banned Tommy, and they said 'because he threatened beheading'. The interviewer (HOW dare SHE?!?!) followed up to ask for evidence, the guy admitted 'well, it isn't anything specific he said...'

It's ok though, if facebook smears him, because he is on the media 'ok to smear' list.
