On Wednesday, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg apologized for the "major breach of trust", saying the company would take measures to protect personal data. It appears that Trump's camp was the main beneficiary of this data harvesting.
Facebook and Cambridge Analytica are in the midst of a backlash over a data breach. "We are committed to vigorously enforcing our policies to protect peoples' information and will take whatever steps are required that this happens", the company said in a statement. "After committee staff received a briefing yesterday from Facebook officials, we felt that many questions were left unanswered", said Walden and Pauline.
"In the wake of recent data theft from Facebook, let my stern warning be heard across the Atlantic, far away in California. For example, we will remove developers' access to your data if you haven't used their app in three months", stated Zuckerberg.
The social media giant said it will also reward people who find vulnerabilities.
Mozilla has been particularly vocal about Facebook's role in allowing 50 million users to have their private data harvested by Cambridge Analytica without their knowledge and consent.
A scandal erupted last weekend when a whistleblower revealed that British data consultant Cambridge Analytica (CA) had created psychological profiles on 50 million Facebook users via a personality prediction app. They provided these certifications.
UK Information Commissioner Elizabeth Denham is to investigate Cambridge Analytica after "the firm was caught in an undercover sting boasting about entrapping politicians, using honey traps and running fake news campaign", says The Guardian.

On Wednesday, Malcolm Turnbull's cyber security chief Timothy Pilgrim said it's likely Australians have been caught up in the Facebook data scandal. And he said Facebook is improving markedly in handling foreign interference in elections, particularly as the 2018 US mid-terms approach. "The conversation we were having internally on this is: Are there enough people who are trained auditors in the world to do the number of audits that we're going to need quickly?"
"I started Facebook, and at the end of the day, I'm responsible for what happens on our platform". We will learn from this experience to secure our platform further and make our community safer for everyone going forward.
And it should be remembered that Mark Zuckerberg himself famously questioned privacy in the digital age, when he said in 2010 that people no longer have an expectation of privacy thanks to increasing uptake of social networking. "But we also made mistakes, there's more to do, and we need to step up and do it".
Germany has been a leading proponent of tougher regulation on social media.
Kogan, a psychology researcher at Cambridge University, told the BBC that both Facebook and Cambridge Analytica have tried to place the blame on him, even though the firm ensured him that everything he did was legal.
