#BREAKING: Today I sued Facebook for failing to protect the privacy of millions of its users and deceiving them about who had access to their data and how it was used: bit.ly/2UYhIpa AG Karl A. Racine Verified account @AGKarlRacine Official Twitter account of the Office of the Attorney General for the District of Columbia. 12:29 PM - 19 Dec 2018 THREAD twitter.com Facebook’s lax oversight and misleading privacy policies allowed, among other things, a third-party app to collect the personal info of users without their permission and sell it to Cambridge Analytica, a political consulting firm. Today’s lawsuit is about making Facebook live up to its promise to protect its users’ privacy. We are seeking an injunction to ensure Facebook puts safeguards in place to monitor users’ data and to make it easier for users to control their privacy settings.
