Facebook representatives told Barack Obama’s 2012 campaign that they had been allowed to use the platform in ways that would have otherwise been prohibited, because Facebook was “on our side,” according to explosive claims from Obama’s former director for media analytics, Carol Davidsen. In a series of tweets, Davidsen that Facebook was “surprised” that the Obama campaign was able to “suck out the entire social graph” (the “social graph” is an individual’s network of friends on Facebook), but did nothing to stop them once they found out.
Davidsen also linked to a talk from 2015 in which she explained how Facebook’s privacy policies in 2012 allowed them to harvest data on friend networks across America.
Davidsen says that this gave the Democrats a massive advantage, as the Republicans did not gain access to the same data before Facebook shut off the feature.

Farcebook is PO’ed because someone got the info, which is available to the public at no charge, and didn’t pay for it.
FB uses the same type info to target nuisance ads to it’s members. And FB provides it to democrats/socialists/liberals at no cost.
FB tentacles run deep.
Between Steele and Cambridge Analytica it seems the Brits were “interfering in our democracy” too. Bigly.
The next FReepathon starts in about two weeks.
We need to finish this one first.
Come on FReepers, let’s do this!
The data that they mined was skewed because, on that web page, they were only studying the "idiot class."
Once again my total loathing for Facebook is confirmed. Anyone who has his/her own Facebook account or allows his or her children to have Facebook accounts deserves whatever ensuing disaster(s) occur.
Never even been to Facebook, not once.

In their zeal to dig up anything remotely incriminating against DJT, the media may have again stumbled into an area they had not thought through. The discovery phase on any litigation in this regard should be very interesting…
Democrats have no law only an agenda.
Well just as Hillary’s deplorable statement riled half the population against her,
Half the population will not care for facebook as a result of this crap.
