They fooled turkers into downloading an app that got not only their information, but also the information of their friends (which in turn multiplied and multiplied) .

Mturk is maintained by Amazon. So, Jeff got a cut of all of this, as well

I would feel better if a non partisan govt audit were being used. Fuckerberg has been complicit in this for three years. He is a lair, traitor and helped the moron get elected willingly! Lock him up, fine his company and change regulation rules. "Mr. t-shirt wearing, tech dude, every man" is a greedy, lying crook who uses FREE SPEECH as an excuse to continue to get away with crimes.
