Excellent interim report from @CMAgovUK on digital platforms.
Evidence: G has significant market power in general search, FB has significant market power in social media.
Things not much better on the ‘other side’ of the market: advertisers are strangled.
AZ & MSFT not yet there.

Consumer mostly passive and do not engage with privacy settings and controls.
Plenty of scope for harm to consumers. 2/

A plethora of remedies to be discussed. Pity the UK is just a drop in the ocean. Will G (and FB) react like G just did in Turkey?

Read it all, including the very informative annexes!

1/ It's time. I'm dropping docs on SCL, Cambridge Analytica & AggregateIQ + others. This is a big subject & people need to be able to find this information.

Here is how this works:

2/ BACKGROUND: These are OSINT docs gathered over years. Anyone can find them if they know how. These are not "hacked" & anyone who claims that is trying to keep you in the dark to promote their own agenda.

@WendySiegelman @annmarlowe

3/ WHY IT'S IMPORTANT: These people, powered by billionaires with anti-democratic agendas, did more than just post a few ads on Facebook. They used weapons grade PsyOps to radicalize people for politics. They employed cutting edge ad tech to do it.

And they are still doing it.

I have reached a whole new level of #PISSEDOFF.

I didnt think such a #dark and #scary state, or level, could be reached. It may top 12-14-17's causation. It's. That. Bad. So, I've prepared a statement...

Dear @FBI,
I must implore you ask your colleauges in @FBITampa to help research this new level of #PISSEDOFFNESS. As locals, they may offer a special indepth knowledge of this new level I have reached. This is not fair & law enforcement must #investigate. No one deserves this.

This is my #apogee of #Pissedoffness.
If #motherfuckers & #tears werent a noticable level.
If #HUSH or #INTIMIDATION tactics being deployed didnt strike a chord.
If #EVIDENCE, PROOF, or 30k Bonds didnt #WOW YOU.
If posting mom with no shred of investigatable value wasnt enough...
