Facebook's defense that Cambridge Analytica harvesting of FB user data from millions is not technically a "breach" is a more profound & damning statement of what's wrong with Facebook's business model than a "breach".

Yes, my sense is that Facebook is really only concerned about the bad press, and not the underlying issue. If it were possible to disentangle the headlines from CA's behavior, Zuck, et al would be happy to let everyone misbehave for all eternity.

One genius move from
#Facebook might be to promise that they will out all the data they have on everyone, and make it available publicly for everyone - with riders that this public profile of person will be limited to 5% of what FB actually knows about the person.Thanks.

There are other ways that Facebook data could be used besides persuasion. Here are some of alt-right troll Charles Johnson Facebook posts. Is he a blowhard? Or should we be looking into what he is up to?pic.twitter.com/7geFHHc3eS

Yikes. Does this mean FB, as a private company, would get to decide which customers it takes on and which it declines? Eg, agree to work with a candidate running against digital regulations and decline work with one that supports regs. Would that be legal? Frightening if so

Excellent Times article! “Should we all just leave FB?” Of course you should! No-brainer. And if you don't, how will they get the message? So many other ways to communicate with friends and relatives.

Why did you not include the
@guardian in your media credits in your@nytimes essay? They broke this story but you credited the Observer and the NYT.#disappointed cc@carolecadwalla -
I thought we linked to them, too? Might have gotten mistakenly cut in the editing for space. Read same five paragraphs 80 times, sometimes eyes glaze. Not intentional.
