Today, 87 million Facebook users will find out if their data may have been shared with Cambridge Analytica. All 2.2 billion Facebook users will receive a “Protecting Your Information” notice, which is linked to apps they used and the information shared with those apps.
The move comes one day before Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg testifies at a U.S. Senate hearing and two days before Zuckerberg testifies at a U.S. House of Representatives hearing in wake of the Cambridge Analytica scandal.
