@toddbishop @BusinessInsider @ashannstew ...if so, a recording of that Q&A session was widely available internally

one area worth more questions, imho🔍

[#hello from Seattle ✌️ @Gondo1a]

@toddbishop @BusinessInsider @ashannstew this section in particular is curious.
presumably it references the CEO Q&A that took place immediately after "the thread" surfaced

[Bob Ferguson @BobFergusonGov]

Today I filed a motion seeking the maximum penalty for Facebook’s 822 intentional campaign finance violations —$24.6 million. Facebook is a sophisticated company. They are a repeat violator of our law.
