I don't understand why people keep falling for this whataboutism. They're not comparable uses of the facebook API at all.

- vanattab 9y agoPlease elaborate on how they are not comparable uses?
- dbt00 9y agoThis has been answered ad nauseam. The Obama app was clearly a political campaign app They did not use fake quizzes to steal user data they asked supporters to contact their friends explicitly they did not download friend of friend data surreptitiously they did not buy or re-sell data in violation of FB's TOS they did not lie and claim to have deleted it when required they used user submitted data to build a database of potential supporters and contacted them to encourage them to vote they did not engage in psychometrics to spread fear and fake news they did all this domestically with US residents
