I had a dream that Facebook as a corporate entity imploded, all of its tech was opensourced, and the platform became a benign community-run social network.
Oh…and Zuckerberg was last seen riding into the sunset, perched atop a safari Toyota Land Cruiser.

This is not a bad response. But, why did it take him so long to make it?

The Beschizza is strong with that image. When I look in there I don’t see any soul… just a sucking sound.
I think MZ really thinks he could be Prez (well, why not, it worked once, right?) using FB as his megaphone.

The Zuck:we need to step up and do it,
Guess how many times in the past this weaselly cretin has said exactly that, like broken record.
WTF! Zuck aided and abetted criminals to undermine our Democracy, and profited from it as well.

This seems like a ironclad assurance that no more horses will be allowed through the barn door closest to the regulators. And what more could one want?

Well it’s not a bad response if it ignores all the other times it has happened - it’s just that those other times didn’t come back to bite them. To suggest that this problem only happened in 2014 is a bit disingenous of him.
(Also, as has been noted, this now just means that FB will be doing all of this themselves instead of effectively outsourcing it to others…)

‘This was a breach of trust contract between Kogan, Cambridge Analytica and Facebook.’

I actually believe this bit.
FB $$$$ come from that data - giving it away to the likes of CA is a threat to their business model. FB will protect that data, in order to protect their business model.
Oh, wait - you thought they had your interest in mind, and were going to protect you?
