[00:01.68]United States lawmakers are calling for more regulation of Facebook.
[00:08.08]The move comes after reports that the social media company
[00:14.40]may have let a political organization have access to personal data
[00:20.40]from around 50 million Facebook users in 2014.
[00:26.88]Facebook wrote about the issue on Friday in a public online message,
[00:32.24]just before news media began reporting on the story.
[00:38.12]Reports said that Cambridge Analytica was given access to the data.
[00:43.84]The data company is linked to conservatives and is known
[00:48.32]for its work on Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign.
[00:54.12]The reports also say the company may not have deleted, or removed, the data.
[01:01.88]Democratic U.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar wrote on Twitter
[01:06.61]that it is clear that companies like Facebook cannot "police themselves."
[01:12.16]She added that Facebook chief Mark Zuckerberg
[01:16.04]should speak before the Senate Judiciary committee.
[01:20.48]Facebook announced late Friday it was banning Cambridge Analytica
[01:25.40]from its service for misusing data.
[01:28.92]The reports are the latest threat to Facebook's public image.
[01:33.24]It has been criticized over Russia's use of Facebook
[01:37.32]to influence American voters during the 2016 election.
[01:43.32]Facebook said researchers and Cambridge Analytica
[01:47.36]lied to the company and abused its policies.
[01:52.08]Yet critics are blaming Facebook.
[01:54.92]They are also demanding answers for users
[01:58.12]whose information was given to Cambridge Analytica.
[02:02.92]Facebook claims the data was misused, not stolen.
[02:06.88]It says users gave it permission.
[02:10.44]The company's position has led to a debate
[02:13.52]about what is considered a "hack" that users must be told about.
[02:19.64]Frank Pasquale is a University of Maryland law professor.
[02:24.68]He has written about Silicon Valley's use of data.
[02:29.32]He said that Facebook's explanation that data had not been stolen
[02:34.52]avoided the central issue that data was used in a different way than users expected.
[02:42.36]Senator Mark Warner, a Democrat, said the event
[02:46.64]proves the need for new regulations about internet advertising.
[02:52.40]He described the industry as the "Wild West."
[02:56.92]He said that without new regulations,
[03:00.00]the market will continue to deal with deception and secrecy.
[03:05.20]Both The New York Times and London's Observer reported Saturday
[03:10.28]that private information from more than 50 million Facebook users
[03:15.76]was wrongly given to Cambridge Analytica.
[03:20.48]They also reported that the company had not deleted the data,
[03:25.36]even though Facebook told them to beginning in 2015.
[03:31.16]The reports say that about 270,000 Facebook users
[03:36.04]gave a researcher permission to use their data.
[03:40.16]The researcher also took the data of all their friends,
[03:44.24]a move that was permitted based on Facebook's rules until 2015.
[03:50.76]The researcher then sold the data to Cambridge Analytica.
[03:55.72]That move was against Facebook rules, the newspapers said.
[04:01.20]Cambridge Analytica worked on Trump's 2016 campaign.
[04:06.16]However, a Trump campaign official said they used Republican data sources,
[04:12.76]not Cambridge Analytica, for voter information.
[04:17.92]Facebook said in a series of statements over the weekend
[04:22.04]that researchers and Cambridge Analytica broke Facebook rules.
[04:27.84]It said it was considering legal action against them.
[04:32.64]In answer, Cambridge Analytica said that they had, in fact, deleted the data.
[04:38.92]It also said the company supplying the data was responsible for obtaining it.
[04:45.72]Andrew Bosworth, a Facebook vice president, said the company
[04:50.65]could make more changes to demonstrate that it values privacy.
[04:55.52]"We must do better and will," Bosworth wrote on Twitter.
[05:01.72]Nuala O'Connor is president of the Center for Democracy & Technology in Washington, D.C.
[05:09.68]She said Facebook was depending on the honesty of people
[05:14.08]rather than preparing for the planned misuse of data.
[05:18.96]O'Connor also added that Facebook knew about the abuse in 2015
[05:24.36]but did not inform users until Friday.
[05:29.00]"That's a long time," she said.
[05:31.96]Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healy said on Saturday
[05:36.80]she was launching an investigation into the use of Facebook data.
[05:42.72]Healey's office said she wants to understand how the data was used,
[05:47.72]what policies may have been abused,
[05:50.52]and what the legal effects are.
[05:53.52]I'm Phil Dierking.

END OF TRACK. "END OF TRACK." The two men bowed. "Whoever was that person you were talking to?" she enquired, as soon as they stood together. The took of triumph faded from her eyes, she had grown worn and weary. The roses were wilting on the walls, the lights were mostly down now. Hetty, looking in to see if anything was wanted, found herself driven away almost fiercely. I only saw Master Jervie once when he called at tea time, The year 1747 was opened by measures of restriction. The House of Lords, offended at the publication of the proceedings of the trial of Lord Lovat, summoned the parties to their bar, committed them to prison, and refused to liberate them till they had pledged themselves not to repeat the offence, and had paid very heavy fees. The consequence of this was that the transactions of the Peers were almost entirely suppressed for nearly thirty years from this time, and we draw our knowledge of them chiefly from notes taken by Horace Walpole and Lord Chancellor Hardwicke. What is still more remarkable, the reports of the House of Commons, being taken by stealth, and on the merest sufferance, are of the most meagre kind, sometimes altogether wanting, and the speeches are given uniformly under fictitious names; for to have attributed to Pitt or Pelham their[112] speeches by name would have brought down on the printers the summary vengeance of the House. Many of the members complained bitterly of this breach of the privileges of Parliament, and of "being put into print by low fellows"; but Pelham had the sense to tolerate them, saying, "Let them alone; they make better speeches for us than we can make for ourselves." Altogether, the House of Commons exhibited the most deplorable aspect that can be conceived. The Ministry had pursued Walpole's system of buying up opponents by place, or pension, or secret service money, till there was no life left in the House. Ministers passed their measures without troubling themselves to say much in their behalf; and the opposition dwindled to Sir John Hinde Cotton, now dismissed from office, and a feeble remnant of Jacobites raised but miserable resistance. In vain the Prince of Wales and the secret instigations of Bolingbroke and Doddington stimulated the spirit of discontent; both Houses had degenerated into most silent and insignificant arenas of very commonplace business. "It certainly will be. Miss Widgeon," answered Maria, with strictly "company manners." "One who has never had a brother exposed to the constant dangers of army life can hardly understand how glad we all feel to have Si snatched from the very jaws of death and brung back to us." "Just plug at 'em as you would at a crow, and then go on your way whistlin'?" persisted Harry. "Hurroo!" echoed Hennessey; "that's the ticket." "Come forward, keeper," continued the baron, "and state how these arrows came into your hands!" "Yes." HoMEJULIA京香2018下载
