Gee, like we didn’t know this. This is exactly what facefart does and how this zuckerfraud scoundrel has sold personal information for a decade. Google does the same damn operation.

All irrelevant. What IS relevant is the agreement Facebook signed with the Federal Trade Commission back in 2011. If they violated it they get fined $20,000 per user. Start multiplying. It will bankrupt the company. If you have an account save your stuff now.

Facebook was warned five years ago that the “reverse-lookup” feature in its search engine could be used to harvest names, profiles, and phone numbers for virtually all its users. But the company ignored the red flags until last week, after it happened.

I've used this function to find someone in the last couple of months.

On Hildabeast’s next speech, will she blame Zuckerberg for her losing the election?

It would help if the FTC gave half the fine back to the individual users.

Then some regular folks would have some skin in this game!

Quite amazing this little snot nosed ‘player’ Zuckerberg says he’s sorry......a typical Dem response when caught. .....equally as much gets them off the hook every time....

Zuckerberg owns the little guys and politicians...and they know it. Power and wealth = control.

In other news, regular guy Zuckerberg, in his regular guy t-shirt, was seen loading suitcases full of cash into his car, as parting gifts for officials.

Hearings are a complete fraud and a waste of time. All they want is campaign money from Zuck so they’re go through the motions of asking him a few questions and then let him off the hook.

Its just more useless political theater brought to you by Swamp Productions, Inc.

*************

Nothings going to happen to Facebook. They will just buy off whoever they need to on Capitol Hill. You gotta pay to play. That in essence is what the Swamp is all about.

Wikipedia:
Gaslighting is a form of manipulation that seeks to sow seeds of doubt in a targeted individual or in members of a targeted group, hoping to make them question their own memory, perception, and sanity. Using persistent denial, misdirection, contradiction, and lying, it attempts to destabilize the target and delegitimize the target’s belief.
