    Former Obama Staffer: Facebook Allowed Us To Break User Data Rules Because They Were On Our Side.....


    Yesterday, Facebook’s stock tanked after it was revealed that they gave user data to a firm, Global Science Research (GSR), via an app. This data was then given to Cambridge Analytica, a firm that was working for Donald J. Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign. The app not only gave GSR the data of the user who filled out the survey, but also that of all of the user’s friends without them knowing it. Some have noted a similar mining tool used by the Obama team, but they gathered information through their website (with permission from those who engaged) and the armies of volunteers, which was then matched with voter profiles. Yes, still a bit creepy, especially since the campaign boasted that they probably knew every single one of the 67+ million voters who supported President Obama in 2012......snip~

    Another foamy-mouthed TDS attempted narrative down in flames:

    'They were on our side': Obama campaign director reveals Facebook ALLOWED them to mine American users' profiles in 2012 because they were supportive of the Democrats


    Carol Davidsen, who worked as the media director at Obama for America, claimed Obama campaign mined millions of people's information from Facebook
    She said that Facebook was surprised at the ease with which they were able to 'suck out the whole social graph'
    But the firm never tried to stop them when they realized what was doing, and even told them they'd made a special exception for them
    They 'were very candid that they allowed us to do things they wouldn't have allowed someone else to do because they were on our side,' she tweeted
    Davidsen said that she felt the project was 'creepy' - 'even though we played by the rules, and didn't do anything I felt was ugly, with the data'
    Davidsen posted this in the wake of the uproar over Cambridge Analytica, and their mining of information for the Trump campaign
