Facebookery: “There Is No Invasion Of Privacy At All, Because There Is No Privacy."

News, originally brought to my attention by the eponymous John Gruber, with further details from Mikael Thalen, writing at The Daily Dot, of Facebookery at it's finest:

"A lawyer for Facebook argued in court Wednesday that the social media site’s users “have no expectation of privacy.” According to Law360, Facebook attorney Orin Snyder made the comment while defending the company against a class-action lawsuit over the Cambridge Analytica scandal. “There is no invasion of privacy at all, because there is no privacy,” Snyder said." - via Mikael Thalen, writing at The Daily Dot

Apparently, Team Zuckerberg are playing fast and loose with the Russian advertising copy they managed to display for 10 million users during the course of the last election. Scuttlebut says, they are hemming and hawing about a request to release the ad copy to Congressional Investigators. This may lead to a Subpoena for Material Evidence - Failure to Comply may carry a Contempt of Congress citation, with a Special Delivery Warrant for a quick trip to the Brig. Perhaps Public String Pulling will be less effective from the Hoosegaw!
