He didn't hack FB. He is a whistleblower. All of the data was acquired in compliance with FB policies at the time (which in and of itself says something). The problem was FB's incredibly lax policies in checking whether the data was shared with third parties, and subsequent cavalier attitude in verifying whether the data was destroyed by those third parties.
Imo FB is the worst actor in this entire matter. And that's saying a lot given how badly some of the other parties have behaved. FB was even threatening the Observer with legal action as they were getting their story ready.
Yeah, whatever other revelations come out of this, we shouldn't lose sight of the fact that Facebook is turrible.
