En undersøkelse av NY Times 18. desember 2018 kler helt av Facebook-ledelsen.
Det er snakk om så graverende brudd på personvernet til brukerne at det er kriminelt.
I tillegg kommer hemmelighold om angrep på demokratiet.
Konklusjonene i NY Times:
"The Times investigation found that Ms.
Sandberg and Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook’s chief executive, had ignored
warnings about abuse on the platform and sought to conceal from public
view evidence that Russia had used it to disrupt the 2016 presidential
campaign and help elect President Trump. The Times also found that when
Facebook was confronted last spring with revelations that the privacy of
tens of millions of users had been compromised by Cambridge Analytica, a
Trump-linked data firm, Ms. Sandberg and Mr. Zuckerberg sought to
downplay the problem and deflect blame.
But
it is Ms. Sandberg who oversees Facebook’s policy and communications
arms, which starting last year embarked on a hard-edged lobbying
campaign to discredit the company’s critics and push back on the growing
chorus of voices calling for Facebook and other big tech companies to
be broken up or more tightly regulated.
For years, Facebook gave some of the world’s largest technology
companies more intrusive access to users’ personal data than it has
disclosed, effectively exempting those business partners from its usual
privacy rules, according to internal records and interviews.
Facebook allowed Microsoft’s Bing search engine to see the names of
virtually all Facebook users’ friends without consent, the records show,
and gave Netflix and Spotify the ability to read Facebook users’
private messages.
The social network permitted Amazon to obtain users’ names and contact
information through their friends, and it let Yahoo view streams of
friends’ posts as recently as this summer, despite public statements
that it had stopped that type of sharing years earlier." (NY Times 18.12.2018)
