This is more of the same. It would be shocking news if it were the first incident, but it isn't. Just more of Facebook getting caught with their foot in their mouth.

It is worth pointing out, that more than the "misuse" of users' personal data, this really shines a light on the "pay to play" aspect of the Facebook ecosystem, and how even that seems to rigged.

Continuing PR problems (most of this unbridled private data sharing was "stopped" in 2015). FB's biz plan, however, is reliant on personal data, so I suspect it continues, in one form or another.
