The mysterious afterlife of Cambridge Analytica and its trove of data - As the US announces a lawsuit against Cambridge Analytica, the Mercer-controlled Emerdata discloses it now owns the disgraced Trump data firm & parent co SCL, by @witjest @pasternack
fastcompany.com/90381366/the-m…
@witjest @pasternack Per the latest corporate filing, Emerdata purchased 100% of the share capital of SCL Group for £10,861,339 GBP, equivalent to around $13 million - and as noted in earlier filings Emerdata owns
89.5% of Cambridge Analytica & 100% of DE LLC Anaxi Holdings
fastcompany.com/90381366/the-m…
@witjest @pasternack Info is from the latest total exemption full accounts up to 31 Aug 2018 that were posted this week
beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/109118…
@witjest @pasternack Emerdata Limited - Total exemption full accounts made up to 31 August 2018 (posted on 23 July 2019)
beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/109118…
@witjest @pasternack Emerdata Ltd financials were filed by director Jacquelyn James-Varga who manages financials for the Mercer Family Foundation
@witjest @pasternack The story misses a big item, of 4 active directors Rebekah & Jennifer Mercer, Varga, Gary Ka Chun Tiu - Gary Tiu worked at Yunfeng Financial w/Erik Prince's biz partner & ex Emerdata dir Johnson Chun Shun Ko

Emerdata may still be linked to Prince thru Tiu
@witjest @pasternack Good point by @profcarroll SCL Insight acquired equipment & assets from SCL Group

SCL Insight is controlled by Nigel Oakes (who once listed his residence as UAE. Ex Emerdata director Ahmad Al Khatib who created Auspex Intl had lived/worked in the UAE)

Wise words from @zeynep - important to cover today's tragedy without repeating the murderer's words verbatim which were "meant to lead more impressionable young people to that ideology"
@zeynep More in this thread "don't excessively splatter the killer's face, name or manifesto on loop on mass media and front pages"... "Instead focus on victims, report about guns"

As we head into #2020 keep your eye on the Mercer's #Emerdata and have pity on the thick browed "Excitables". I predict #fuckery. beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/109118…
Expect a pile on. Peter Thiel doesn't like the media.
If you know who uses Palantir and why, then you should be concerned that someone who targets "political enemies"and the media is in the data collection, scraping, disambiguation, aggregation and targeting business. digg.com/2018/palantir-…

🔥It’sGameOn!🔥

The House has opened an impeachment investigation against Trump

The House filed a petition to access to redacted portions of the MR re GJ testimony re Trump’s knowledge of criminal acts, RU interference in the 2016Elex election & RU connex to his campaign.
🔥It’sGameOn2🔥

Finally, the committee seeks grand jury testimony about actions taken by former WH counsel Donald McGahn; this last request probably anticipates the committee’s rumored plans to seek an order compelling McGahn to testify.

#ObstructionOfJustice
🔥It’sGameOn3🔥

It is settled law that House committees can obtain GJ materials as part of the impeachment inquiry.

The Constitution’s text and structure — supported by judicial precedent & prior practice — show that impeachment is a process, not a single vote & IT IS UNDERWAY!

If anyone thinks Trump’s wall is *really* about U.S. border security or national security, they are being naive. It’s just another con game from an unintelligent unstable con man. americanprogress.org/issues/securit…
2/ “In 2006, Trump and LA-based real-estate development company #Irongate announced plans to develop a Trump-branded resort in northern #Baja, Mexico, to be called Trump Ocean Resort Baja Mexico. Trump and the developers spent two years marketing the resort and selling units.”
3/ “In short order, more than 80% of the condo units were sold, collecting a total of $32.5 million in buyer deposits. However, the resort was never built, although the Trump Organization still reportedly collected $500,000 in licensing fees.”

What happened at Cambridge Analytica was not an accident. It was deliberate and exploitative:
Facebook’s 2017 Privacy Audit did not catch Cambridge Analytica: wired.com/story/facebook…

UK Parliament wants Zuck to answer at least 39 questions under oath:

What exactly does Zuckerberg mean when he says users own our own data?
“2.2 billion people who use Facebook would love to cash a check from the company, but the sad truth is that this is nothing but a pipe dream. It suggests that this isn't Facebook's problem to solve, it's yours, and that doesn't sound like a fair deal.”
