Hmm. Undercover. Did they falsify their identities? Was there selective editing of the videos?

Just airing all of the arguments Leftists raise when undercover Planned Abortuary videos are released.

No, but both campaigns mined data from Facebook, because Facebook is a data collection enterprise.

Yes. Obama used them.

Facebook took money from them.

Anything that hurts Facebook = good for conservatives. FB and Twitter are enemies of conservatives. Google/Youtube as well.

Expecting the Swamp to tie this around Trump’s neck, but initial reports indicated CA worked inside the process, for Trump, at the time.

“Anything that hurts Facebook = good for conservatives.”

Very true. I’m wondering if CA is going to be the new boogeyman now since “muh Russia” is falling apart. They were involved with Trump and Brexit ... two liberal nightmares come true.

Obama went directly to Facebook.

They already have. I have a liberal guy who writes me everyday from Massachusetts. They have already hung this around Trump.

LOL.

I’d asked a rhetorical question. :-)

Just like you are not the customer of the post office but the product. So too is social media. You are not the customer, you are the product

Facebook is furious that they didn’t get paid for the data. The same data Facebook uses to target advertising to FB users. The data is there for anyone who cares to look for it.

Yep, that’s why I am not on social media. Never was very sociable to begin with, or maybe it’s just been the last 40 years. 8>)
