Here's Zuckerberg's response in which he "shares some more context around the decisions we made": https://www.facebook.com/zuck/posts/10105559172610321 https://www.facebook.com/zuck/posts/10105559172610321
Quick textual analysis: in a pithy 623-word statement, Zuck manages to mention "shady", "sketchy" or "abusive apps" no less than 7 times. 8 times, if you include the time he mentioned Cambridge Analytica without using a sketchy adjective.
Notice the spin as Facebook the White Knight protecting the public from the evils of sketchy apps. Unclear how this will play out given public losing trust in Facebook itself.
[Reference]
1. "some developers built shady apps that abused people's data"
2. "to prevent abusive apps"
3. "a lot of sketchy apps -- like the quiz app that sold data to Cambridge Analytica"
4. "Some of the developers whose sketchy apps were kicked off our platform sued us"
5. "we were focusing on preventing abusive apps"
6. "mentioned above that we blocked a lot of sketchy apps"
7. "We've focused on preventing abusive apps for years"
8. "this was the change required to prevent the situation with Cambridge Analytica"
