Mark Zuckerberg blames himself for Cmabridge Analytica scandal

Mark Zuckerberg has rejected calls for involvement in the Cambridge Analytica scandal, saying only he feels responsible.

A statement issued earlier by senior Facebook officials stated that some 87 million profiles were taken from the Cambridge Analytica platform, but Zuckerberg insisted that the company's direction was done correctly by employees of the world's largest social network, reports the Guardian”, broadcast Periscopi.

At the end of the day, this is my responsibility. So there were a lot of questions about staff members. I started this place. I'm running it. I'm responsible for whatever happens there, the chief executive said.

I still think I'm doing good work to help others move on. I'm not asking for the mistakes we made here to be thrown into others. ”

By Wednesday, users can view Facebook profiles by inserting an email or phone number. However, the company's leading technology official, Mike Schroepfer, said: “malicious programmers have also abused these characteristics to hide public profile information by sending out phone numbers or email addresses that they already have through research and account recovery. ”

In view of the scale and solidarity of the activity we have seen, we believe most people on Facebook may have had their profile in public form. So now we've disabled this feature. ”/Periscopi/
