The DNC in cahoots with Facebook and Google.

External mining of Facebook profile data VS. in direct cahoots with Facebook's full spectrum data PLUS Google search etc etc etc etc etc etc etc data...

NO comparison.

Do they have any evidence that Trump or any of his top campaign people directed any illegal actions or knew about them?

That's quite an assumption you got there. Maybe check out one of the many links about this story to get informed on what happened, what this company did, and how not only did they steal user data to manipulate said users online but also influenced elections around the world while not being afraid to use extortion, bribery, sex workers, and Fake News.

This story isn't about Facebook, unless of course you're a die hard Trump supporter whose head is firmly planted in the sand.

This isn't about the DNC and their ties to Silicon Valley. I'm sure there are already many threads about that topic.

Deflection, I see you.

Just google Robert Mercer, add in Trump, Ted Cruz, Breitbart, and of course Cambridge Analytica.


This certainly is disturbing. How do you convince people that they may have been manipulated when their whole self worth is tied up in some image as a rugged individual? This will not go over well in ATS.

Tick tock indeed.

Thanks. Going to read some more.

The point is, here we're getting a hair on fire post about people being arrested for what? SOmething about mining user data type BS, when that's NOTHING compared to Silicon Valley's outright ELECTIONEERING.

BS scapegoating as usual from the liberal media.

Whether or not you get behind such in your face bare knuckle hypocrisy is up to you.

PS: This goes WAAAAAY beyond typical left/right BS. This is Tech Giant (robberbarron) social engineering with a electioneering twist, and anyone that supports it ought to be ashamed of themselves as they're borderline enemies of the Republic.

And since i'm perusing ..

Revealed : 50 million Facebook profiles harvested for Cambridge Analytica


... snip ...
The data analytics firm that worked with Donald Trump’s election team and the winning Brexit campaign harvested millions of Facebook profiles of US voters, in one of the tech giant’s biggest ever data breaches, and used them to build a powerful software program to predict and influence choices at the ballot box.

A whistleblower has revealed to the Observer how Cambridge Analytica – a company owned by the hedge fund billionaire Robert Mercer, and headed at the time by Trump’s key adviser Steve Bannon – used personal information taken without authorisation in early 2014 to build a system that could profile individual US voters, in order to target them with personalised political advertisements

..snip..

The data was collected through an app called thisisyourdigitallife, built by academic Aleksandr Kogan, separately from his work at Cambridge University. Through his company Global Science Research (GSR), in collaboration with Cambridge Analytica, hundreds of thousands of users were paid to take a personality test and agreed to have their data collected for academic use.

... snip ...

However, the app also collected the information of the test-takers’ Facebook friends, leading to the accumulation of a data pool tens of millions-strong.

Facebook’s “platform policy” allowed only collection of friends’ data to improve user experience in the app and barred it being sold on or used for advertising.


ye gods, there's like 50 million manchurians in the US right now !


like ahh' saiid

Well, Kushner hired the firm and Steve Bannon was on the board of said firm and Manafort was involved as well, so yeah.

Kushner, Manafort were primary players in hiring Cambridge Analytica for Trump campaign

Instead of trying to mini mod, perhaps you should focus on the larger scope that is being presented.

Some of you are completely in another reality. Even when presented with actual facts, you prefer alternate facts. Hint: one of those is not a thing.

Nah, you're just deflecting. Had Trump been a Democrat you'd be up in arms over this and everything else he and his admin have done. But since he's a Republican, he gets a pass while you only focus on Democrats.

Are both parties deeply corrupt? Yes. Is this thread and breaking story about Democrats? No. So let's stay on topic and stop the deflections and whataboutisms.

Okay, what exactly did they do with the externally mined data that is illegal? That even begins to compare to the electioneering activities of the tech giant's the external mining was performed on?

Oh I am, have you not seen my posts? I'm just sick and tired of conservatives ignoring what's in front of them while yelling DEMOCRAT!!

Some would say they are off topic, others would say they are trying to bury the story by only talking about Clinton, Obama, DNC, Facebook, Google, and liberals.
