The senators assume that nobody reads the agreements when installing an app or make an account on a website, and that Facebook is to blame for that? It's your own fault for not reading it and giving personal info to a website without reading into it. There's fine print in every contract. They also seem to imply that simplifying user agreements would magically make already public user data go private when the user closes their account, and retroactively encrypt any copy of that data that got saved elsewhere.
Some of these senators seem uh out of touch.
I thought you weren't allowed to stream on both Twitch and YouTube at the same time?

Zuckerberg is like Data from TNG, without all the emotion.
not sure which of these two expressions i relate to more https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/216259/03222965-78e7-45b7-83d6-e6120060e275/image.png
the senate should have read the user agreement (zing, but thats only for twitch partners)

[SPEECH 50] Senator, my team will follow this up with you.
Sorry for asking such a broad question but could someone explain or link a concise article that explains the context of this hearing, I am having a hard timing following this entire thing.
Yes, my team will follow this up with you
Yes Senator, I think that's a very important question.
The shit they're asking him is extremely black and white, when the answers CAN'T be black and white. As fun as it is watching Zuckerberg stumble and stutter his way through this, it's yet another very sad representation of how shitty our government is.

the future sucks but its pretty funny sometimes
here you can see he's running additional grip checks to ensure the water does not slip from his finger servos and make him look bad on TV https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/110042/972bb16f-a9c9-46c0-b0b8-0aa6dbc46f40/1523400180720.webm
Its sad but i am betting nothing real and substantial will come from this
This was a mess to begin with considering the press on his ass and other senators just cramming their career politician garbage into this.
can someone explain this to me. I'm confused what all the fuss is. I thought it's common knowledge people are tracking you thru the app, or even without it, so i dont get why everyone is up in arms all of a sudden. Can someone explain?
Facebook gave their data to Cambridge Analytica, who used it to promote Russian interests with fake accounts throughout the 2016 election. The data facebook collected was enough for them to target individuals whose online history suggested they would be good targets for propaganda, and through them their families and communities.
that clears up a lot now. i was confused on the matter as the mentioned highlight reel thru me off on why its an issue.
I had an intrusive thought just now about how perfect a camera would be for an assassination tool in something like this if they're not thoroughly checked. They even have a built in aiming system.
yeah i was thinking kinda bout this too when i thought everyone was upset about their information leak. If someone wants u dead these days, they can find a way.
I thought the issue was that Cambridge Analytica purchased data from some actual Facebook apps that were breaking terms by selling the data they received through the normal "log in via Facebook" shit? I only skimmed though, I'm not too invested in this.
That's actually a means of assassination in the new Hitman game. You can slip an explosive charge inside a camera's lens and detonate it when the target is being interviewed.

Aw damn I forgot clips don't have the chat unless you watch them on the page. This was more for the chat rather than the content
