And yet FB stock up 5%

The senators asking the questions are completely clueless. EU/GDPR will properly deal with FB.

I'd like to SHOUT OUT TED CRUZ for complaining about the real issues: Facebook censoring Chick Fil A. Not kidding.

To me it seems like the GDPR will hurt Facebook’s competition, the ad networks, far more than it will hurt Facebook itself.

The dude is responsible for ruining the entire country and old people are still joking and wonder in awe on his intelligence. Maybe because he might give them donations in the future?

Also Ted Cruz?? Seriously??!

Given the ire with Facebook, some users may choose to view this on C-SPAN: https://www.c-span.org/video/?443543-1/facebook-ceo-mark-zuc...

Also the committee's page:

Or any of the dozen or so YouTube livestreams. The Guardian has a good one with no logos taking 1/4 of the screen:

I find it disappointing that many of the questions and Mr. Zuckerberg's answers regarding content shared on Facebook focus on pictures and textual messages. Very little discussion of gathering and use of PII such as name, gender, sexual orientation, location, likes, interests and social relationships. I believe these are the most valuable pieces of information to advertisers and data miners.

Just a semantic nit pick on PII (personally identifiable information)...

Name is PII, location at a high enough resolution is PII. The rest are metadata about an individual but not PII. Knowing someone is a straight male doesn't tell you enough to identify a person.

This is relevant because GDPR (and other things) special case PII.

It is very frustrating how naïve and uninformed these senators are.

please dont link to facebook.com. its on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ValJMOpt7s

Why is linking youtube ok but not facebook?

There is no official rule about it. IMO YouTube is a little more open then FB and FB may require you to login to view content.
