On: Zuckerberg on Cambridge Analytica situation

> It is against our policies for developers to share data without people's consent.

Not to mention that it's arguable that "consent" was really given for facebook to share the data in the first place. I'd be interested to see some polling results asking if facebook users knew what facebook was up to and whether they feel OK with it.

I'd also be really interested to see screenshots of what the users saw when they clicked "ok." I've been able to find a few screenshots online for other apps, but nothing that indicates what it would have looked like in 2013.

I think this is from 2013.

Nice. This doesn't seem to mention sharing data about your friends though? I wonder if that would have been mentioned separately to grant access to your friends data?

That one is pretty vague. Here's another that I found that's a lot more explicit. This one is definitely from 2013.

It mentions "list of friends", but not what kind of data is attached to entries in said list.

These fake consent (EULA, signup clauses) need to be shot down once and for all. Consent needs to be visible, granular, and explicit.

These have existed for a long time, on paper contracts.

I found the old permissions request. Seems fairly clear to me, but I doubt people really understand the consequences
