FBI gets Facebook data

Reports: Facebook Gives Out User Info To FBI Without Legally Required User Permission

The platform allegedly provides the agency with user information with “a partisan focus” – effectively eliminating all the legal barriers the FBI theoretically has to go through if they had to ask for the information themselves.

The data sharing is allegedly part of “Operation Bronze Griffin,” a new report from House Judiciary Committee Republicans claims.

And, of course, the data provided to the FBI tends to “only to concern users from one side of the political spectrum,” the whistleblowers say.

Want to guess what side it was?
