I watched it. He said (Trump-supporting) Facebook employees were embedded with him and his crew on the Trump campaign in order to help them optimize their use of the Facebook platform. WTF? Was Zuckerberg paying them to do that or what? Pascale said Facebook asked the Clinton campaign if they wanted similar help but they declined.

That stinks. Did Facebook also help the Russians optimize their use of Facebook? I have little doubt that Facebook knew what the Russians were doing but couldn't resist the $$$$$$$$$$$$ so they kept it quiet.

buying and coming up with adds that were racist or across the line. Some other Trump loving Americans. How would facebook know about them all from Russia. Sure the ones who paid in rubles would be obvious.
