The article quotes "people familiar with the matter". For all we know, this could be a controlled leak, and the "people familiar with the matter" could be CXOs and Facebook's core management team. :)

Funny to see the alleged data abuse giant unravelling with all the hustle and bustle of upper management panic.

Sorry to answer to my own post. I joined Facebook last week. After eleven years of refusing to play Facebook's game.

Here's the information I gathered from 20 minutes on Facebook - a powerful platform indeed.

The author (Sarah Frier) seems to be on good terms with the CXOs of Facebook:

CPO Chris Cox https://www.bloomberg.com/features/2016-facebook-reactions-c...

COO Sheryl Sandberg https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2017-04-27/how-shery...

CEO Mark Zuckerberg https://www.bloomberg.com/features/2016-facebook-virtual-rea...
