Facebook executive Andrew "Boz" Bosworth defended the company's "questionable" growth tactics in the name of connecting people, in an internal memo from 2016.

Unbelievably depressing poll results from CNN:

Democratic presidential primary 2020

Former Vice President Joe Biden holds the most widespread support when potential Democratic primary voters are asked to rate the chances they would support six possible candidates for the party's 2020 nomination.
A broad 84% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents say they are likely to support a Biden bid for the Democratic nomination, two-thirds of whom say they are "very likely" to back his candidacy.

Many of us have written about the necessity to abandon the two party system in favor of a multiparty system.

Data: High Rate of Sexual Abuse by Cops

A recent Associated Press investigation indicates that sexual misconduct is among “the most prevalent type of complaint among law officers.” A 2010 Cato Institute report ranked harassment and abuse prevalent complaints against cops, second only to excessive force. And according to Splinter News, review of victim reports and media inquiries suggests that a police officer is busted for sexual abuse or harassment every five days.

The ‘hero’ whistleblower that busted Cambridge Analytica forgot to tell a lot of the story he’s been selling about Facebook and access to all that data. In fact, HE had access and control of it AFTER he left CA. This guy is NOT any cleaner than Andrew Nix. Not trying to downplay the importance of the CA story but trying to show how MANY people and organizations had that data thanks to Mark Z. and people like our ‘whistleblower’ here. And was his motive for squealing revenge?
