Politico: Lawyers for Facebook trying to keep emails with CA secet.

https://www.politico.com/blogs/under-the-radar/2019/08/02/facebook-emails-cambridge-analytica-1444902

"D.C. government attorneys pressing a consumer privacy lawsuit against Facebook over the Cambridge Analytica scandal filed copies of the messages in D.C. Superior Court in March, but the firm has insisted that the communications are confidential business records that should not be put on the public record.

D.C. officials said the email chain demonstrates that Washington-based employees of Facebook began raising concerns internally in 2015 that the company’s data was reaching Cambridge Analytica through third-party applications approved by Facebook and that the targeting firm — which shut down in May 2018 — might be misusing that data."
