> With Cambridge Analytica, a core component of Facebook's advertising business model is threatened. Hence the inaction. With Russia, Facebook and political advertisers' interests are aligned. Hence, action. I think more conspiratorial thinking is necessary. With [fake] political ads, the ability of FB to usurp the ruling class in the US is apparent. In this case, it was Russia but in another hypothetical case it could be FB themselves (picking and choosing the propaganda err messages to show). Since the powers that be won't take kindly to that, action. The powers that be don't actually care about privacy, in fact they actively don't want people to have privacy. Hence, inaction for CA.
