Facebook may face multi-billion dollar fine for Cambridge Analytica scandal

Facebook may have to pay a multi-billion dollar fine for violating its users' privacyor face a lawsuit from the Federal Trade Commission.

Facebook privacy revelations since the Cambridge Analytica scandal include making the posts of 14 million users public despite the users sharing the posts with only a limited number of contacts, giving tech companies access to users' personal data, and making the private photos of millions of people public.

In addition to a fine, EPIC's letter last month urged various structural remedies for the Cambridge Analytica scandal and other privacy violations.
