The Cambridge Analytica scandal in which personal data of over 87 million Facebook users, including 500,000 Indians, was compromised, has not hit the social media platform in a significant way in terms of people deactivating their accounts, company CEO Mark Zuckerberg has said.
Zuckerberg, 33, also the founder of Facebook, acknowledged this during a Cong-ressional hearing on Wednesday, his second in two days, on issues related on data privacy and security in the aftermath of the Cambridge Analytica scandal.
“Yes,” Zuckerberg said when Congresswoman Dana louise DeGette asked whether Facebook has witnessed no significant increase in users deactivating their accounts.
