Dingell Questions Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg: "I worry that when I hear companies "value' our privacy, it's meant in monetary terms"

Press Release

U.S. Congresswoman Debbie Dingell (MI-12) today questioned Facebook Chairman and CEO Mark Zuckerberg at a hearing of the House Energy and Commerce Committee entitled, "Facebook: Transparency and Use of Consumer Data." Dingell pressed Zuckerberg about the questions he failed to answer during his congressional testimony regarding Facebook's business practices, as well as the extent to which Facebook collects information about users across the internet, even those who do not have Facebook accounts.

"I worry that when I hear companies "value' our privacy, it's meant in monetary terms, and not the moral obligation they have to protect it," Dingell said. "Data protection is like clean air and water. There need to be clear rules of the road."
