Although cheaply priced, I couldn't agree more, the "attribution" numbers tend to suck, but those pimping it will lie and come up with some homemade metrics to try and prove its value.

Millions of Facebook Records Found on Amazon Cloud Servers
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/arti...acebook-records-found-on-amazon-cloud-servers - whoopsie! how did those get there?

Facebook Inc. user data is still showing up in places it shouldn’t.

Researchers at UpGuard, a cybersecurity firm, found troves of user information hiding in plain sight, inadvertently posted publicly on Amazon.com Inc.’s cloud computing servers. The discovery shows that a year after the Cambridge Analytica scandal exposed how unsecure and widely disseminated Facebook users’ information is online, companies that control that information at every step still haven’t done enough to seal up private data.

This is the biggest threat they face today and the reason they're asking for more regulation.
Once they started editorializing (removing white supremacists, etc) they took ownership of the content on the platform.
Now that they've done that, they have to editorialize all content, otherwise they are held responsible for it.

✨ AI Highlights

Automotive professionals debate Facebook's future after a major privacy scandal, with most agreeing the platform remains effective for car advertising despite damaged public perception. Key tensions emerge between those who view Facebook's ad targeting capabilities as still superior (Adam Schaefer) and those concerned the trust erosion will be harder to overcome (craigh, Alexander Lau), though Chris Cachor notes users may simply migrate to Instagram rather than abandon Facebook entirely. The thread reveals broader concern about misinformation and data privacy practices, with Rick Buffkin raising an intriguing observation about Facebook's ironic choice to defend itself through traditional media rather than its own platform.
