This is nuts if FB’s quarrel is with the term “data breach,” and they’re intimating litigation over it. I wouldn’t call it that since it involved a second-party betrayal of trust rather than an external hack, but it’s a reasonable metaphor.https://twitter.com/carolecadwalla/status/975007440612753408 …

It didn't contradict anything. It's a reasonable point of view if you just look at all of it from a narrow technical security point of view
I think the fight over "breach" is counterproductive to the extent that 1) protection for victims of breach here suck (cf Equifax), 2) TOS violations provide more leverage via Europe.

TOS between the quiz makers and the users? Would have to think through remedy. In US context, also thin.

No for quiz maker to sell it to third parties. Violation of UK law, right?

Yeah, then not a contract claim, but a data privacy claim, with the TOS only mattering to show that it didn’t provide for consent?

You're right. It'd be nice to see a lawsplainer of where the liabilities lie. I think Congress might be ready to absorb something like that in the very near future.

one cannot have an informed discussion on this if the roles of Facebook Inc and Facebook Ireland are not dissociated. Cambridge Analytica and Kogan contracted with Facebook Ireland.

Meaning that it is subject to EU law, not US law?

both! and even transatlantic instruments, that can be enforced in front of the FTC/US courts!
