Who's got two thumbs and an eye on FB?

It's worth noting that Facebook is the F in FAANG. FAANG is the gains in the stock market going back to 2016 at least. And Cambridge Analytica have been implicated in the Brexit and the Brits are totally cool with killing 158-year-old newspapers over shit like this so yeah. I'd say we're outside "business as usual."

"OMG it's so crazy it just might work."
