At a screening of the Netflix documentary ‘The Great Hack,’ the former Secretary of State discussed the importance of data security with the filmmakers.
Former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton moderated a post-screening discussion of the Netflix documentary, which covers the Cambridge Analytica Facebook scandal and the larger implications data mining has on democracy, at New York's Crosby Street Hotel on Friday night.
“I’m like the hit-and-run victim, who you find on the side of the road,” Clinton joked. “Oh how did that happen? Well, it started in England.” The film follows the story through the eyes of several of the people involved, including journalist Carole Cadwallai, who uncovered the Cambridge Analytica-Facebook scandal and joined the filmmakers at the talkback. Subjects also included David Caroll, the media professor who filed an official complaint against Cambridge Analytica, requesting his data, and Brittany Kaiser, a former Cambridge Analytica employee who has testified about her involvement and started the #OwnYourData campaign.
Cadwallai asked Clinton if she thought there was any connection between Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s meetings with President Trump and the ruling that the social media platform will not fact check political ads. “Is it possible to have a free and in any sense fair election while that policy is in place?” Cadwallai asked.
