people who signed up for the app knew they would be explicitly
allowing this Obama-connected app access to info/friend data.
But the targeted friends had no say in the matter and gave no consent to being isolated and targeted.
- dnomad 9y agoWhat on earth makes you think they "targeted friends"? What does that even mean? Did they spam friends with unwanted emails and phone calls? Did they try to propagandize friends with ads targeted to certain demographics? Did they literally light up the friends with green lasers?
- JetSpiegel 9y agoThey targeted friends who would be on the fence about who to vote for. Easy to find out about based on Facebook information.
