Snowden shocks with his statement: Facebook collects and sells your data

He has said that Facebook is a “surveillance company” that sells personal data to its users.

The business that makes money by selling and selling private data, was once called surveilment company”, wrote the former contractor of the US National Security Agency.

It's the most successful fraud since the War Department was converted to the” Defense Department, Snowden wrote, writes Periscope.

This Snodween comment, which has been distributed over 30,000 times on Twitter, comes at a time when “Cambride Analytica”, a private data analysis company that worked for US President Donald Trump's election team, is accused of collecting information of more than 50 million Facebook users without their knowledge during the election campaign.

After publishing the scandal, Facebook suspended access to “Cambridge Analytica” on the platform last week, claiming that the company and two individuals who had helped collect the data had deceived the social network. /Periscopi/
