It is now a year ago that the Cambridge Analytica scandal, which saw Facebook user data hoovered up for use in political campaigns, broke into the headlines. The legal and business repercussions continue to this day, but has Mark Zuckerberg actually learned his lesson?
So, a year on, what has changed both in terms of how 'we, the people' perceive expectations of privacy in the online space and just as importantly what the Facebook view looks like? There's no doubting that data privacy has moved front and center into the awareness of the average online user during these last 12 months.
This seems at odds with Zuckerberg's recent claim that Facebook is an innovator in privacy."All of the success that Facebook has had... has been because we've given people new private or semi-private ways to communicate things that they wouldn't have had before". Derek Roga, CEO of secure mobile communication platform EQUIIS Technologies, argues that Facebook will never be known as a champion of data privacy.
