People are so fvcking stupid it hurts. Facebook is a data mining exercise masquerading as a social media platform. This is not news.

Rule of thumb: If it's free, then you are the product.

I sat through that dull film on a long haul flight.

It made the flight seem much, much longer.

My admittedly limited knowledge of this SCANDAL!!! is based on the fact that the mined data was then used for political manipulation (which of course is then magnified further as it involves Trump’s election).

The same fúcking gob****es who are now violated have probably used this social media platform for years and on a daily basis been presented with potential new friends, or groups they may wish to join, or banner messages down the side of the screen which was caused no violation.

Wánkers to a man and just to avoid getting in trouble to a woman also.

What have they done that is illegal?

The sharing of personal data which is probably embedded somewhere in the hundreds and hundreds of lines of their Terms and Conditions of use.

There may well be potential issues regarding where the data has been shared to if outside the EU or larger EEA area.

Whether it was illegal remains to be seen. However, anyone displaying shock that data is used in this way is either a fool or a fvcking liar.

They changed the terms of the agreement without fully acknowledging the uses to which these changed functionalities would be put.

I'm sure I read somewhere that the terms and conditions of use for Facebook contains more words than the US Constitution. Speaks volumes about both really...

If something illegal has happened then Facebook or Cambridge Analytics deserve to be held accountable however if data has been harvested in line with agreed Terms and Conditions and now people are violated and offended as they don't like why the data was used then fúck them.

Remarkable stupidity of the people to think they were handing over all this data to a global giant who ask for no financial donation, and to then think said data was not being used for x, y and z.

Can we please stop talking about people being 'violated', though? I associate being violated with being non-consensually bummed, not with having some nerd using my personal information to get me to vote the way I probably would have anyway.

No one, without using physical coercion, can get you to vote in a particular way. This whole brouhaha seems predicated on an acceptance that voters lack any agency and can manipulated like children.

The shooting may be minor, a flesh wound as such.
