During his recent apology tour, Mark Zuckerberg notably failed to mention recent revelations about the Obama 2012 campaign’s exploitation of the platform’s weak pre-2014 data protections to harvest masses of data from non-consenting users. The number of ex-Obama staffers on his payroll, according to Linkedin, might explain why.
The establishment media narrative on the Facebook data scandal hit a snag last month. They hoped the story would be restricted to Cambridge Analytica, a data analytics firm that they linked to the Cruz and Trump campaigns, and their alleged misuse of data. But a bigger story soon emerged, linked to a longtime media favorite: Barack Obama.
By the admission of Barack Obama’s former media analytics director, Carol Davidsen, the former president hoovered up far more data without users’ consent in 2012, when Facebook’s data policies were (as Facebook now concedes) far more vulnerable to exploitation than they were in 2016.
In the words of Carol Davidsen, who oversaw data analytics at Obama for America in 2012, the campaign was “actually able to ingest the entire social network of the U.S.” Davidsen made these comments publicly as early as 2015, but they received little attention at the time.

BOOM.
Explains a lot of the one sided Dem Facebook.
Y'all better boycott FB.
20,000 employees and themselves all democrats,surprised they consider conservative views hate speech?
Most of us KNOW what facebook is all about. They are NOT neutral. They do NOT allow everyone to have a voice. I have watched some of the questions to Zuck at these hearings. The only ones that I have seen that were not softball ones were from Cruz and an older senator.
Cruz did a good job as well as the older man when he told Zuck that FB's terms were only to cover their ass.
And don't forget ole Zuck called all of us dumb f#$%'s for trusting him. Remember that?
Facebook is CIA
Created by CIA and placed freemason Zuck into the role of inventor.
Zuck is a puppet. Idiot.
