有關(guān)科技公司Cambridge Analytica盜用臉書用戶數(shù)據(jù)的爭論鋪天蓋地,臉書在沉寂四天后于周二發(fā)表聲明,寫明首席執(zhí)行官的行蹤:“扎克伯格和桑德伯格團隊一直在馬不停蹄地搜集證據(jù),采取適當(dāng)行動解決問題,他們都知道這件事非常嚴(yán)重。”臉書告訴媒體每日野獸網(wǎng)(The Daily Beast)。
“The entire company is outraged we were deceived. We are committed to vigorously enforcing our policies to protect people's information and will take whatever steps are required to see that this happens.”
“整個團隊都對遭受欺騙感到非常憤怒。臉書致力于用法律保護用戶個人信息,會為保護用戶個人信息采取一切措施。”
The company's statement is notable for three reasons. One, it escalates the emotional tone of Facebook's response — on Friday, it called Cambridge Analytica's actions “unacceptable”; today they are an outrage. Two, the statement frames the story as a deception in which Facebook was not the bad actor but the victim. Three, it buys the company time amid growing demands to hear from Zuckerberg himself.
臉書的聲明非常出名,出于以下三點原因:一,聲明中情緒逐漸激烈。周五,臉書對Cambridge Analytica的行為稱之為“不可接受”,今天已經(jīng)說它是惡行了。二,聲明中提到這是一場騙局,臉書沒有指導(dǎo)任何行為,是徹頭徹尾的受害者。三,大家都要求扎克伯格發(fā)聲時,臉書給了Cambridge Analytica足夠的時間。
CEO Zuckerberg and COO Sandberg have drawn criticism for their silence in the face of mounting concern about Facebook's response to revelations about Cambridge Analytica. The company, which served as Donald Trump's data operations team during the 2016 election, has been accused of improperly obtaining data from academic researcher Aleksandr Kogan and using it to harvest information about more than 50 million user profiles.
大家都在關(guān)注臉書會對Cambridge Analytica的行為作何回應(yīng),首席執(zhí)行官扎克伯格和首席運營官桑德伯格的沉寂招致了罵名。Cambridge Analytica在美國2016年大選時是特朗普的數(shù)據(jù)操控團隊,被控告從學(xué)術(shù)研究員阿萊克三德·寇根處盜用數(shù)據(jù),以此獲取了5千萬臉書用戶的信息。
Zuckerberg may be working around the clock, but he is expected to address employees on Friday during the company’s regular Q&A session for employees, The Verge has learned. The meeting is scheduled to take place at 1P ET.
媒體《The Verge 》報道,扎克伯克可能是忙得連軸轉(zhuǎn),但是他應(yīng)該在周五的例常臉書問答會上對員工作出解釋。會議將于美國東部時間周五下午一點開始。
