Reply to: Cambridge Analytica, great British success or a really evil organisation?

Yes - because if we shut down all the evidence will go away.

Why shut down if there's nothing to hide / no wrong doing?

Because the brand is now toxic. No company or political organisation would risk being associated with them .... even though they are probably queuing out the door to sign-up for their services.

I'm sure most of the staff will be setting up Oxford Analytics as we speak.

Interesting that the BBC has the Cambridge Anal shutting down story, but not the Emerdata re-branding exercise.

Why omit that one salient bit of info?

Cambridge Analytica is shutting down following Facebook scandal | Engadget

Today, Cambridge Analytica was shut down following the Facebook scandal and subsequent investigations, The Wall Street Journal reports. During a conference call today with the tech firm's employees, chairman Julian Wheatland of parent company SCL Group announced the news, according to Gizmodo. But it isn't just the tech firm: SCL Group is closing down too, its founder Nigel Oakes told The Wall Street Journal. Shortly after the news broke, Cambridge Analytica itself issued a press release announcing it and SCL would stop operating, and the former would begin bankruptcy proceedings.

I think some people have to accept the idea that leave won because the EU is crap.

I think some people have to accept that idea that Trump won because Clinton is a basket case zoomer.

Then we can all move on from this BS.

Well yes too much pro-remain 'spinning' of this story, which I think weakens its message.

That message being, that the 'Deep State' is (and was) involved in illegal psy-ops, data-mining and destabilizing democratic process both here and abroad, through the nexus of SCL, AIQ and Palantir, all of whom have links to 'State constructs' & well connected and powerful figures on both sides of the pond. None of which is really a surprise, just that we have more of the footprints in the snow to look at.

Probably pulling the strings on both sides in any case, but it's interesting to see how little traction it's pulling on the BBC.......Corbyn remains the 'real' enemy!

Where is the Russian link to this story ?

Yes, Farage is linked to Assange, who in turn is linked to Russian Intel.

Where is the Russian link to this story ?

According to today's DCMS select committee, CA's Nix pointed Lukoil in direction of Aleksandr Kogan.....so subsequently any Russian State keylogging of him would likely open up yet another can of worms.

There is nothing wrong with Farage.

And remember some people on here love him...

Yes, plenty of morons on here - would be great laugh to see them once Farage's extradition paperwork comes in

[SueEllen]

What about Farage? Would be difficult for him to claim it

How many of them will claim to suffer from Aspergers in order to avoid extradition?

There is a program on Channel 4 on Wednesday that shows more adults have autism than what have been diagnosed. So don't be surprised if everyone in the entire company has it due to their lack of ethics and morals, and the type of work they have done.
