Facebook CEO and co-founder Mark Zuckerberg will make an appearance before members of Congress this afternoon and Wednesday morning. In two days of hearings, he will face questions on how and why Facebook failed to protect the data of many millions of its users.
The Congressional hearings were prompted by the revelation that Cambridge Analytica, a British political consulting firm linked to the Trump campaign, obtained data of roughly 87 million Facebook users to profile potential voters.
Senate and House lawmakers will also ask Zuckerberg about the spread of fake news on Facebook, and how Russians interfered during the 2016 presidential election by using the social media tool.
The joint Senate Judiciary and Commerce Committees will hold their hearing at 2:15 p.m. ET today, and Zuckerberg will appear before the House Energy and Commerce Committee at 10 a.m. ET on Wednesday.
