Facebook to start notifying users impacted by Cambridge Analytica scandal

Even if your data was not accessed by Cambridge Analytica, Facebook will show you the third-party apps you have authorized to use your information and provide the option to de-authorize apps you no longer wish to have access.

The company is trying to clamp down on fake pages and accounts used to disrupt the 2016 U.S. presidential election. "That would be a paid product", she said.

"Advertisers will be prohibited from running political ads electoral or issue-based until they are authorised".

OTTAWA-The federal and British Columbia privacy commissioners are joining forces to investigate Facebook and Canadian political consultancy AggregateIQ - two firms at the centre of an global uproar over the unauthorized use of social-media data.

Do you believe that Facebook Messenger was working on this feature and Mark Zuckerberg was essentially a "beta tester" for it?

According to recent reports, Cambridge Analytica, a data mining firm that worked with President Trump's campaign as well as the Brexit campaign in Europe, held onto data that had been harvested through a personality test app, in violation of Facebook's terms of service.

Bill Cosby paid accuser $3.4M to settle sexual assault trial
According to a motion from the defense filed on Friday, the 11th juror allegedly said he's already decided Cosby is guilty. Ossorio, who is from New York City , said she organized the protest to get justice for Constand and other survivors.

"But that doesn't mean you don't tell the users, 'hey this was stolen from you, '" she said. "I'm really sorry for that".

After angering the world with its big Cambridge Analytica data fiasco, Facebook is seems to be trying to get on our good graces by rolling out a new Messenger feature: the "unsend" button. You can delete them, sure ... but that won't delete them from the recipient's data file. "We did not follow up and confirm, and that's on us - and particularly once they were active in the election, we should have done that".

Facebook published this week, explaining that beginning on Monday, April 9, there would be a new link at the top of everyone's News Feed. Sandberg said Facebook also should have been more proactive in dealing with Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election.

"Europe was ahead on this", she told the FT. "We didn't. Now we've learned".

The company is facing a global backlash over the improper sharing of data. People are inputting data.

"This work has not progressed past the planning phase, and we have not received, shared, or analyzed anyone's data", Facebook said in a statement, obtained by The Independent.
