India has just warned Mark regarding the data theft that was reported last Saturday by New York Times..

The big story in short, With a political party's support, a voter profiling start up has harvested over 50+ million profiles and their private information without their permission. The facebook's tried defending the company that it was not a data breach..

It has reflected in India and it openly warned Mark that India cant tolerate such kind of data breach in the future and he will be summoned in case it happens..

Facebook responded with "We are committed to vigorously enforcing our policies to protect peoples’ information and will take whatever steps are required that this happens".

do these back to back strikes going to be the reputational hit to Facebook?
 
nothings going to get done, they're just telling you what happens
 
And he thought that he'd be able to run for president in 2020, lol
 
He's been summoned to the UK Parliament too

This was the letter they sent him https://www.parliament.uk/documents/commons-committees/culture-media-and-sport/180320%20Chair%20to%20Mark%20Zuckerberg%20re%20oral%20evidence.pdf

He's under no obligation to attend and I would be very surprised if he attends the DCMS committee. He could inadvertently say something that could be used against Facebook as part of the ongoing UK and US investigations as to whether the law was broken.

His PR team have been working overtime trying to repair the damage done in the meanwhile. This is their latest statement - https://newsroom.fb.com/news/2018/03/cracking-down-on-platform-abuse/

Still got some recovery to do to get back into the 180s.

One thing I am certain of is that Facebook is going to get some unprecedented fines for their mishandling of personal information. Probably on a level that's normally only seen with financial services firms.
 
12 clicks a month is probably converting to 0.
One of my clients in B2B gets a few hundred clicks a month and only gets 1 or 2 leads.

It's a PR exercise at the moment.

"We're sorry we screwed up, but don't worry, we're making changes to improve things"

The big question will be at what level within management did people realise that these kind personal data breaches were happening?

If it went all the way to the top, then Mark Zuckerberg is going to have a very hard time to repair the damage done to his reputation. In normal situations, his position would be untenable.
 
How is this is any different than running a psychological profile of the average viewer of The Blacklist for example, and running ads catered to them and influencing them.
 
Mark should be careful and respond to goverments. Even my small country (Poland), was close to ban Facebook for blocking nationalists fan pages. Still some people are working to cause Facebook ban. They need only some reason for people.

...and do not say that we have VPS, after Facebook ban, maybe few percent will use VPS, most of people are not technical. If these few percent will see that they friends are gone, they will leave also.

Every goverment can ban facebook in their country, very easy.

I don't know where are you from, but in whole Europe it's possible. It's how Italy, France or Poland bans gambling. There is a list updated by goverment, Internet operator needs to check it every day and add to firewall. That's all. So if some poker site change domain, next day... ban.
 
I live in the United States even if something is illegal like gambling online you cant be blocked from acessing the site.

You are not telling truth. I remember big FBI logo when someone tried to enter pokerstars website from USA.
... and this logo is popular

Enjoy the truth

I am telling the truth, you are confusing seizure of property and banning people's access.
