Didn't this involve people who explicitly download and app that told you it was going to gather this data for research in exchange for payment?

And with this one I'm having a bit of trouble understanding what "exclusive access" means here. It sounds like it was pretty much the opposite of exclusive.

The essences of this seems to be that people pushing "leave" bought ads on Facebook, and that some of the people who bought the ads may have been shady. > Because Facebook employees say “F*ck ethics, money is everything”. One engineer said that on Blind. I'm pretty sure you can find one employee with that attitude at pretty much any employer that pays well and has over 100 employees. |
