Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak deactivated his Facebook account Sunday saying he’s “disgusted” by how it handles personal information, according to CNNMoney.
“It should bother all of us how much data they had access to, like profile info that we think is private. My disgust goes to Facebook. But, like all of us, I clicked ‘Accept’ or ‘OK’ or something and gave it away to Facebook. I have always felt badly about social websites being able to sell my stuff, like my photos, and keeping all the money,” wrote Wozniak in an email to CNNMoney.
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg planned to testify before congressional committees about the company’s Cambridge Analytica scandal.
Cambridge Analytica, a London-based data firm tied to President Donald Trump’s campaign, obtained access to information for an estimated 87 million Facebook users without their knowledge.
Wozniak said that Facebook doesn’t protect its users’ data the way Apple does, and gets advantage from its user’s information.
