(a) is the suspension permanent? They can’t unring the bill of obtaining data inappropriately. They can’t un-compromise the presidential election they compromised. They need to be punished. And there must be serious repercussions or this will happen again.

(b) the distinction you’re drawing between this infraction and a data breach is meaningful from your perspective, but not from ours. Facebook’s platform must protect us from predatory behavior or we can’t and shouldn’t trust the platform

(c) “they’ve certified destruction.” Has the company attested, via a legal instrument they has teeth, that every single individual who had access to the data has not made a copy? Have the individuals personally attested to that? All that data would probably fit on a thumb drive.

(d) has the company and have the relevant indidivuals at Cambridge Analytica attested that no copies of the information were transferred to third parties prior to CA’s destruction of their own extant copies?

(e) has Facebook referred the matter to relevant bodies of jurisdiction for criminal prosecution? Federal & state prosecutors don’t need this to act, but it would speak louder than words in proving that Facebook takes our privacy and the integrity of its platform seriously.

I can see why you don't want to admit liability, but "breach" is also a legal term. @profcarroll @carolecadwallahttps://twitter.com/StevePeers/status/975053049558388736?ref_src=twcamp%5Ecopy%7Ctwsrc%5Eandroid%7Ctwgr%5Ecopy%7Ctwcon%5E7090%7Ctwterm%5E3 …

48 states have laws on notification. A week ago, your lawyers were downplaying this- are you telling us they are fully compliant on all? http://www.ncsl.org/research/telecommunications-and-information-technology/security-breach-notification-laws.aspx …

I want to know why Facebook hired Kogan’s collaborator on this project? What tools is he developing for Facebook? Is Facebook bringing SCL in-house? Has Facebook’s business model now expanded to include psyops?

Their friends did not. I know your average graph fan-out. It's how they got from 270k users to 50M victims.

In other words: this was unequivocally a data breach, unless you have an alternate explanation for that delta of 47 million people. And if you do, please share it.

I am quite sure that the facebook terms & conditions cover it. . (not that it makes the facts prettier in any way)

Then there's be no reason for Facebook to terminate access.

I meant: The tos presented to end users probably cover fb on the legal side. I guess we'll find out if that assumption of mine is correct. . Terminating CA's access: I guess the (seperate) contract between Fb & CA was worded by fb in such a way to allow termination.

How many others Contracts does FB have with these big data companies?

good question, afaik, they BUY data from other aggregator companies & merge it with their pfw set

What apps stole user data without abiding by your agreements? What will be done to prevent this in the future?

This. They should also be sharing the 50m people who were affected by this negligence.
