British MPs Release Seized Facebook Documents Exposing Advertising Practices

A group of British MP’s, seemingly upset at Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s refusal to appear before the U.K. Parliament, have released a cache of seized Facebook documents. The documents outline many of Facebook’s practices around advertising. BBC News reports the U.K. Parliament’s fake news inquiry has published a number of seized Facebook documents, which include emails between senior members of Facebook staff and other employees. The cache which is approximately 250 pages long and was marked as highly confidential was obtained from Six4Three, a startup app company that is suing Facebook.
