Facebook knew all along what could be done with its data. To claim otherwise is BS. http://www.news.com.au/technology/online/social/leaked-document-reveals-facebook-conducted-research-to-target-emotionally-vulnerable-and-insecure-youth/news-story/d256f850be6b1c8a21aec6e32dae16fd

It's a lot deeper than "bad scary conservatives scraping data for election" - Zuckerberg sells mindshare of suicidal teenagers to corporations so those corporations can make those suicidal teenagers buy things. The whole thing is a bad deal for humanity as a whole - "social" media being the whole thing.

For more on corporate crimes please check out /r/NoCorporations, a sub dedicated to raising awareness of corporate malfeasance, and exploring the systemic impacts corporations have on human health, the environment, our culture, and more. It is a chronicle of what results from putting profits ahead of people, and I have been detailing stuff exactly like this for a very long time.
