F.T.C. Wants to Punish Facebook, but the Divided Agency May Go Only So Far https://t.co/LjJIeKLNYk > The chairman appears to have the votes to approve a settlement with a big fine. One of the biggest issues has been whether to hold Mark Zuckerberg liable for future violations

Don't understand why it can't be a % of revenue for next decade so @Facebook can grow and pay for its misdeeds and Wall Street/Board/Management is reminded of the cost of bad behavior than do a one-time write-off and move on https://t.co/5HXyT8eaev? via @nytimes

1. Great and apparently well-sourced reporting by @ceciliakang @nytimes on machinations inside @FTC and @facebook over privacy settlement with $$$ penalty & other remedies. Several key points stood out (Thread...) https://t.co/jD0VE1x2kI

If a company’s founder, chairman and CEO who personally controls 60% of voting shares cant be held responsible for the actions of his company, what even is the point of pretending that law and regulations exist https://t.co/UmtWoZIQJP pic.twitter.com/SfNsQAfkTg

Mark Zuckerberg is in trouble not only for his platform’s censorship, but for mishandling user data. https://t.co/5bTuLsHVi1

Republicans don’t want Zuckerberg held liable for Cambridge Analytica (an arm of the Republican political technology machine). However Dems will be furious if Zuck isn’t held personally liable. Latest on divided FTC settlement talks. https://t.co/NhTHrSbus0

From @ceciliakang in the @nytimes newsroom: The F.T.C.’s commissioners agreed months ago that they wanted to pursue a historic penalty that would show the agency’s teeth. But now, members are split on the size and scope of @Facebook’s punishment https://t.co/6sUhxHyBQ9

Let's make it not a massive one time fine but a perpetual levy and use it to fund local journalism. https://t.co/g4g0r8siWO

Facebook needs more than a fine. It needs structural fixes, including spinning WhatsApp and Instagram off. Instead the @FTC seems set to treat Zuck as too big to fail and step back from enforcement that would actually protect our privacy and democracy https://t.co/gApByuoT85
