MPs probing data scandal seize papers

- BY JASON BEATTIE

FACEBOOK documents have been seized by MPs probing the Cambridge Analytica data scandal.

They used rare Parliament­ary powers to force the boss of US software company Six4Three to hand the informatio­n over.

It comes after Facebook boss Mark Zuckerberg blanked MPs’ questions.

The documents are said to shed light on the social media giant’s privacy controls before the data breach was made public.

The Commons Digital, Culture, Media and Sport committee is investigat­ion Cambridge Analytica’s use of informatio­n from 87 million Facebook users to target political adverts.

Committee chair Damian Collins said the tech giant had “very serious questions” to answer.
