"Facebook had to expel a group that was using its API to scrape data about people who expressed interest in Black Lives Matter and sold that data to police departments, which was a clear violation." - @Moonalice https://t.co/5VUU8ZGecE

The problem is much bigger than Facebook. It's the internet's economic model. It's the internet's surveillance model.

Communicating, sharing, and accessing information shouldn't have to make you a commodity or target.

You shouldn't be exploited for using the internet.

Over a decade later, #FBI #surveillance of #IraqWar protests still resonates - Bureau’s photos of a 2004 antiwar demonstration show how little it takes to end up in a federal database https://t.co/tyOCZpb6To
