Mark Zuckerberg would have known about Facebook data breaches
Mark Zuckerberg would have known about concerns of data breaches at Facebook as early as 2010, MPs today heard. The tech giant's former operations manager Sandy Parakilas said the media giant handed over'highly personal' data on its users to app developers. But once the information was handed over the company had no way of keeping track of it - meaning it could be harvested and used by firms like Cambridge Analytica. Mr Parakilas, who worked for the firm in 2011 and 2012, said he gave top executives a briefing on the dangers that data could be breached. But he said Facebook effectively turned a blind eye to these concerns and did not carry out audits of where the data was going.
