Facebook has been fined 6.7 billion won ($6 million) in South Korea for sharing user data without their consent. The US company shared data of at least 3.3 million out of its 18 million users in Korea to other companies without their consent between May 2012 to June 2018.

lol, they probably made more than $6 billion selling that data, a small price to pay, one they would be more than happy to pay over and over again if the fine is all they get.

Hey, I noticed you created 5 alternate usernames, and then aged them, with the purpose of breaking the site rules that require a wait between registering subs.

I am banning all your additional usernames and removing your wrongfully-obtained moderator positions.

I will not ban you, but this is your final warning. If you break any site rules again you will be permanently banned from saidit.
