Do you agree or disagree?

The Cambridge Analytica scandal is a huge deal. It has major implications for how far personal data can spread from social media to private individuals and companies, and it brings up questions about what people are using this data for, as well as if their intent is malicious.

To catch people up (I’m copying some of this wholesale from the article because it’s complicated and I don’t want to fuck it up): 

Cambridge Analytica acquired personal psychological data of about 50 million people from researcher Aleksandr Kogan. He gathered that info through a personality quiz app that mined information from those who downloaded the app and their friends. Cambridge Analytica created 30 million profiles about voters using this information.

Cambridge Analytica worked with the Trump campaign during the 2016 election, the Brexit “Leave” campaign, and Ted Cruz’s 2016 presidential campaign (prior to working with Trump in the general). Kushner would brag about his connection to Cambridge Analytica. Rebekah Mercer sits on the board of Cambridge Analytica, and her father Robert Mercer invested heavily in the company. Both have ties to Steve Bannon and have helped fund and shape Breitbart.

The CEO of Cambridge Analytica, Alexander Nix, has bragged about blackmailing and bribing public officials around the world, and was recently suspended from the company.

This is all to say that Facebook is in a lot of trouble for being so cavalier about this data being improperly obtained, and Cambridge Analytica is currently being investigated by the FTC, UK authorities, and potentially Congress.

Like I said, this is a huge deal.
