Facebook is a government spying operation by tLSU
I understand that this place is littered with simpletons, but a data breach by a private company does not equal "a government spying operation."
I think he’s referring to the 2012 Obama campaign that was given access to tens of millions of people’s private profiles. The “loop hole” was closed before the RNC got the same sort of information. The DNC still has all this data for politically targeting individuals and groups with specialized adds. The news broke yesterday and people are pissed. #DeleteFacebook is trending on twitter.

Right, but this isn't the government, and campaign staffers aren't government workers. Campaigns are private organizations and the companies exploiting the data, like Cambridge Analytica, are private.
None of this equals a "government spy organization."
