      Tom's Hardware has done a wrap up on everything that we currently know in relation to the rather epic Facebook and Cambridge Analytica security, privacy, and democracy interference scandal.

        I find it interesting FB says they are changing their behavior. How is it possible for them to do so? They have no product to sell. If they stop selling data to douchebags like CA they will be out of business tomorrow.

          They have a totally viable sales model that is public. This stuff is extra money and, AFAIK, was all done through back channels illegally through board members and didn't hit FB coffers.
