> But I don't agree Facebook isn't to blame. > Power comes with responsibility. At least that is what most countries believe. But the question remains unanswered: what is Facebook to blame for? What responsibility did they shirk? Cambridge Analytica lied about the purposes of their data and subsequently lied about deleting the data they collected. But Facebook remained true to their agreement to only share this data for academic purposes, and when they discovered that some university researchers were violating this agreement they terminated this data sharing program. With the benefit of hindsight we can say that Facebook should have been more doubtful of the integrity of academics - but without that hindsight I'm not sure what Facebook did wrong.
