People use Facebook and Google all the time but they don't get how the system was rigged. They never realized how they were played during the 2016 election cycle. The "fake news" wasn't fake to them (or many of them anyway) so it's not so clear what CA actually did to all of us.

We definitely need new internet transparency laws and new security measures to prevent this crap from happening again. The perps at Cambridge need to be brought down. But I don't think it will ever be a big news story like the Stormy Daniels or pee-pee tapes are.
