Update from today’s hearing in UK challenging the liquidation of Cambridge Analytica: Judgement reserved. Stay tuned.
It gets lost in technicalities but this pending decision is pivotal.

If I lose, it means SCL/CA vanishes and crucial questions may never be answered. And I’m on the hook personally for costs.

If I win, then the truth about our data lives on to see the light of day.

We wait.
A remarkable moment in today’s court hearing was when defendants could not discuss details about SCL Insights Ltd with court, the only remaining company that absorbed SCL Group’s assets. They couldn’t discuss SCL Insights because of active investigations, including in the USA.
You may recognize SCL Group from: —Brittany Kaiser’s evidence to Parliament on export control for weapons-grade tactics data.parliament.uk/writtenevidenc…
—recent House Judiciary doc request list judiciary.house.gov/story-type/let…
—Mike Flynn’s amended disclosure form documentcloud.org/documents/3913…

Facebook shareholder suit over Cambridge Analytica deceptions kicked to Delaware courts by Northern District of California. Plaintiffs want to know “who was involved and when they knew.” law.com/therecorder/20…
I find it very interesting that many of these major decisions across the various suits over Cambridge Analytica are occurring around the same time about a year later. These things take at least a year.
Worth noting that lawmakers (UK DCMS, US SSCI/HSPCI, etc, Canada ETHI, EU Parl LIBE, etc) and regulators (UK ICO, US FTC etc) completed/launched investigations. Their reports have been replete with hard evidence, and so useful to court cases as crucial public interest evidence.

Original complaint by @AGKarlRacine ICYMI oag.dc.gov/sites/default/…
If this suit is tossed today, despite all the wider public interest issues at play, the fundamentals of consumer protection in the context of our elections, I’m not sure we should have much confidence that Facebook will be held to account in the US courts for Cambridge Analytica.

And of course most people don’t realize that Cambridge Analytica was illegal per UK law which applied to US citizens in this case. (I proved that.)
Here’s the full filing from today seeking to unseal the docs that reveal FB internal comms about Cambridge Analytica that FB wants to suppress for spurious reasons.

Judging by my notifs it seems most people were not aware of AG Racine’s case which was filed in December. The hearing is in DC tomorrow! Anyone planning on attending?

#Khashoggi Case Thread: I am going to ‘pin’ this post to use it as an ‘Info Thread’ on the #Khashoggi Case. I am in #Turkey. I’ve been following the case closely and with access to sources & experts here. This is a very ‘sensitive’ criminal case due to ‘Diplomatic Booby Traps’!!!
The Evidence Obtained Outside Cameras will not show any evidence of ‘tempering’ but other than license plates of dozens of diplomatic cars (Many with tinted windows-large trunks) with related time stamp, drivers Info, model/year: Nothing.
#Turkish Intel-Investigative Bodies also have the list of all Diplomatic & Private Saudi & “other significant’ Planes in #Turkey for the period of ‘interest.’ Many of the Target airports have their own security cameras & related evidence.

"I wouldn’t say it was just because of Donald Trump, but Donald Trump makes it click in your head that this actually has a much wider impact." "I don’t think that military-style information operations is conducive for any democratic process."

Wylie told House Democrats Tuesday that Steve Bannon directed staff to test messaging in 2014 about Vladmir Putin and Russian expansion in Eastern Europe.

This is the full memo. Rebekah Mercer, Bannon and Nix were warned that it is *illegal* to have foreign bodies work on a US political campaign. In 2014. And... they did anyway.

‘Congress to require FEC report on foreign money in elections’ ☺️

What was Brad Parscale’s role? He took all the credit for work actually done by Cambridge Analytica. Because the work was done by foreign nationals.

Nix was the major decision maker (foreigner) and Wylie and others were the major data people (foreigners.)
