      .@Elaine_Quijano: Is this illegal? Jennifer Grygiel, professor: “I would say that if what Facebook is saying happened, that [Cambridge Analytica] had harvested this illegally, then yes, it could be. And it depends on what country it took place in.” http://cbsn.ws/2DzFwpH pic.twitter.com/CcBRqKWulP

      “Essentially there was nothing preventing and protecting users of Facebook from having their data used in ways they didn't agree to. So I think if anything this just highlights that there isn't enough regulatory infrastructure,” Grygiel says http://cbsn.ws/2DzFwpH pic.twitter.com/OdblzzsAgb

      “The data points that Cambridge gathered are very similar to what you fill out on a social network like Facebook -- the others are far more interesting,” Dan Patterson, Senior Writer for TechRepublic, explains http://cbsn.ws/2DzFwpH pic.twitter.com/9ww7e2GWkU

      “We don't know precisely what Cambridge was doing. What we do know is this wasn't a typical type of hack...Cambridge used and perhaps misused the information that's available about you to almost any advertiser within Facebook and other social networks,” http://cbsn.ws/2DzFwpH pic.twitter.com/6DpiaocftE

          An unrelated app had users log in to FB, which gave that app access to all your data. They then sold the the logins to Cambridge Analytics, which used them to steal the data. So it wasn't a hack in the technical sense, but it was a theft, and against FB terms of service.

          Problem is FB sent a Pro-DJT team to CA to show them how to maximize the data.

          Don't call it a hack. The data was gotten the same way all Facebook apps are allowed to get it. Problem was they shared it with unauthorized 3rd party. 3rd party said they deleted the data, but didn't.
