Facebook Data Scandal: EU Parliament Member: Mark Zuckerberg's Testimony 'A Farce'

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg's highly anticipated testimony in front of European Union Parliament came and went Tuesday. Initially a private session, Zuckerberg agreed to let the event be livestreamed at the last minute, but transparency concerns lingered due to a question-and-answer format that ultimately left parliament members unsatisfied. Zuckerberg gave an opening statement before parliament members provided lists of questions on various topics. He was then given time to answer whatever questions he felt like answering after they had all been asked, with no opportunity for follow-up questions from the 12 Parliament members. Parliament member Udo Bullman of Germany called the meeting's format a "farce" in a statement.
