Leftists love to strip your personal data on the internet for their own purposes. But they absolutely abhor any use of personal data that could possibly benefit Donald Trump. So the most recent Facebook scandal, where Facebook sold the personal data of millions of users to the firm Cambridge Analytica, which then used allegedly used it in the Trump presidential campaign, has caused serious harm to the reputation and bottomline of Facebook.

Facebook Stock dropped by $35 Billion
>Facebook stock dropped $35bn (£25bn) by close of trading on Wall Street, as the company deals with questions over its privacy rules in the wake of a scandal involving data firm Cambridge Analytica harvesting a vast repository of user information.
>The social media giant’s stock value declined by around 7 per cent, paralleling losses throughout the technology industry and raising questions about the controversy inflicting lasting damage to Facebook’s bottom line.
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/news/facebook-stock-market-value-cambridge-analytica-data-breach-a8264251.html

The New York Times has published articles against Facebook
>The hashtag #DeleteFacebook appeared more than 10,000 times on Twitter within a two-hour period on Wednesday, according to the analytics service ExportTweet. On Tuesday, it was mentioned 40,398 times, according to the analytics service Digimind
http://archive.is/yuqXA#selection-1997.0-2001.217

As has Business Insider
>The hashtag #DeleteFacebook is trending. Lawmakers are investigating the company. Major executives like CEO Mark Zuckerberg and the chief operating officer Sheryl Sandberg are pulling all-nighters trying to get ahead of the controversy. And, as the hashtag suggests, people are deleting their Facebook accounts.
>On Tuesday night, the former Facebook executive Brian Acton even jumped in. "It is time. #deletefacebook," Acton, who cofounded WhatsApp, wrote on Twitter.

Politico Magazine released an opinion piece titled "it's time to break up Facebook"
>Facebook is, to put the matter bluntly, a deeply untransparent, out-of-control company that encroaches on its users’ privacy, resists regulatory oversight and fails to police known bad actors when they abuse its platform

The Politico piece had the integrity to mention that the Obama Campaign took five times as much data:
>According to Carol Davidsen, a member of Obama’s data team, “Facebook was surprised we were able to suck out the whole social graph, but they didn’t stop us once they realized that was what we were doing.” The social graph is Facebook’s map of relationships between users and brands on its platform. And after the election, she recently acknowledged, Facebook was “very candid that they allowed us to do things they wouldn’t have allowed someone else to do because they were on our side.”
https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2018/03/21/its-time-to-break-up-facebook-217665

Don't worry about Mark Zuckerberg though. He sold many of his shares to avoid losing his money
>Facebook Inc. Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg saw his net worth decline by more than $5 billion since Monday, but it could have been worse.
>Ahead of Facebook’s worst one-day decline since 2012, prompted by news that data affecting 51.3 million members was improperly shared with a political consulting firm, Zuckerberg had been busy selling stock. So far this year, he has sold more than 5 million shares.
>Disposing of those Facebook shares FB, +0.74% before Tuesday ended up saving about $70 million, according to Securities and Exchange Commission filings and some arithmetic by MarketWatch. At Tuesday’s close, the 5.4 million shares Zuckerberg has sold this year under a predetermined plan would be worth $910 million. Zuckerberg made about $980 million selling those shares, according to calculations using average weighted prices reported to the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Like the old saying goes, "the bigger they are, the harder they fall." Correct me if I'm wrong, but (((they've))) gotten a lot larger and more controlling than ever before, so they're all set to fall pretty damn hard.

I welcome the downfall of Fakebook and the Fakebook Goblin, but i do doubt that one crisis can take down an internationally backed megacorporation, no matter how corrupt, overvalued or mismanaged it is. This is overall good though and may or may not damage the brand long term and may lead to further incidents down the line.

Yeah if Facebook start making ads, they do fear something.

This is the beginning of the end, they will
-Start acquiring the challengers
-Enforce even more censorship on the mass media and shit
-Act like shit on the users, and we all know Zuckerberg is a terrible investor
-this will end in lawsuits as people move away from Facebook
-People rediscover the net away from social networks

Yay.

Thank you.

This "Normies are icky people who must not be allowed to touch my toys or I can't play with them any more" attitude is childish tumblr-tier bullshit. The internet is a place of information, discussion, and learning, and if it wasn't for the swarms of normies repeating pro-Trump memes instead of lefty memes, Trump wouldn't have won. We must redpill normie, before the left bluepills him.

Remember, if Seth Rich could have blamed his whistleblowing leaks on "The hacker group known as Anonymous", he would likely still be alive and leaking more shit.

Nice, even the old people know the left is full of shit! It's nice to see our appeal is broadening past our usual "The fraction of 4chan users who actually get to see redpills on 4chan with all the shilling and shit" demographic, and-

Why am I the only one happy that normies are redpilling other normies on the left? Is it because I'm the only one here who's seen actual race realism discussed and agreed with openly over there, while everyone else just sees the screenshots where old folks sound like typical dumbfag old folks?

Sure, if they start posting fucking food recipes here, direct them to more suitable locales until they accept the ponypill. And sure, they've probably only taken the easy pills to swallow, rather than the hard ones like the jewish influence and the necessity of jewish removal. But acting like the alt-right can only survive if the whole thing's a seekrit club for elite 200-IQ rick and morty fans only is stupid. We won America because most Americans liked Trump and Pepe far more than Hillary and her libtards.

Think of it like a pyramid. We're at the top of that pyramid. Reddit's below us, I won't argue with that, but they're still a part of our pyramid, and I'm glad they're no longer a part of the crumbling jew's one.

I'm with you on this. This is the tipping point I've been hoping for, where the largely Facebook/etc community - with all their vastly networked feeds and shit - start actively redpilling all their contacts, relatives, and associates.
