NYT: Facebook offered big tech firms more user data than previously revealed

Facebook offered more of its users' data to companies including Microsoft and Amazon than it has admitted,

according to a new report that it obtained internal Facebook  documents that provided insights into the social network's data-sharing arrangements with more than 150 companies. The deals worked on a quid-pro-quo basis, the report said, with the connections helping Facebook gain more users and its partners add new features to their products while effectively avoiding Facebook's regular privacy rules.https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2018/12/19/tech/facebook-user-data-big-tech-companies/index.html
