This is a slap on the wrist—a fraction of the profits Facebook makes in a year. Facebook is a repeat offender & fines like this won’t stop them from breaking the law & violating our privacy again. It's going to take big, structural change. #BreakUpBigTech https://t.co/yXjj6F8RWR

Hats off to @harryfoxdavies - the journalist who first set Cambridge Analytica hare running in Dec 15. Cover-up after cover-up followed. But today Facebook finally faces music: $5 billion fine from FTC investigation triggered by our story last year ???https://t.co/VghkiUSgaF

$5 billion for repeated violations of FTC @FTC privacy consent decree is a good start - but the ideal is a penalty that is more personal and more injunctive -- like a ban on sharing of data, or better yet, divestiture of WhatsApp. https://t.co/1Hsi016X07

Facebook should be held accountable for putting your security at risk. Now, we need to put real privacy rules in place that stop this from happening again. https://t.co/y8FfGbeuax

While Pakistan struggles to secure a $6-$8 Billion loan from IMF, Facebook prepares to pay a $5 Billion penalty on privacy issue?☺️

Facebook had revenue of $15 billion in the first 3 months of this year.

If that keeps up, that means FB could have revenue of nearly $60 billion this year alone. It has made hundreds of billions of dollars by violating privacy.

$5 billion is small.

#FTC may hit #Facebook with $5 billion, but won't faze the giant and the fine shld be $50 billion plus an admission of guilt for ignoring rules for ten years so it can be sued https://t.co/uJwkzWY5wx pic.twitter.com/N51e8gdJla

A sign that the #US is willing to punish large tech companies for privacy violations. In light of recent scandals, #Facebook expects to be fined up to $5 billion.

To us, #privacy was fundamental long before big companies were fined for violating it. https://t.co/sxbOXI6UVs

“This would be a joke of a fine — a two-weeks-of-revenue, parking-ticket-level penalty for destroying democracy” https://t.co/hnp9ME3p1E

My view, in @MikeIsaac's story on FB and the potential FTC fine: “This would be a joke of a fine — a two-weeks-of-revenue, parking-ticket-level penalty for destroying democracy.” https://t.co/DWUGprrpbC

“The F.T.C. is really limited in what they can actually do in enforcing a consent decree, but in the case of Facebook, they had public pressure on their side,” said CR's @JustinBrookman regarding Facebook's potential FTC fine (via @nytimes): https://t.co/An0lluUXMG
