Senator Wyden Wants Facebook And Google To Suspend Micro Targeting Tools

Sen.

Ron Wyden called on Facebook and Google to suspend micro-targeting on political ads.

He said foreign government could take advantage of the tool to influence American elections.

According to Gizmodo, Wyden thinks such tools can dissuade minority groups from voting.

The Senate Intelligence Committee recently released a bipartisan report on the electoral interference by Russia.

The report showed the scope and scale of the Russian campaign to spread misinformation.
