Haugen says she never intended to come forward with her criticism of Facebook. She thought the trove of internal documents she had gathered and leaked towould stand on its own. But when she did testify,"the public got to put a face to my name," Haugen said."Whether [Zatko's] disclosures have impact will be dependent on the public trusting him."
"We particularly lack transparency about the overall impact that they have on their users. So right now, we're in a place where we rely heavily on these individual whistle whistleblowers for a peek inside the black box. And that's really problematic.
The FTC has already fined Twitter $150 million for misusing user email addresses and phone numbers for marketing purposes in violation of its 2011 consent decree.
