Recently, there has been a lot of scandals about private data sharing / selling / stealing on the Internet. This is the reason why we took advantage of April 1st to produce this short scary Science-Fiction news with a little bit of Cambridge Analytica, a little bit of Minority Report, and a lot of Big Brother.

Sorry for those who got a little scared before realizing it was only a joke! That's what makes the fun of April fool's day

I was really scared that people found out that my mind is blanked. As an atheist and politically shallowly interested, I find that this post is highly offensive and lowly defensive.

Loved the joke, haters gonna hate!

Sorry, my english is poor. Which one is the April fool's story? The 03/31/2018-one or the 04/02/2018-one?

I totally bought into it, and was slightly scared/outraged

Great joke, guys!

HAHA nice one

I really enjoyed the joke and nominated the best I have seen for years.

Doesn't matter one iota if you were joking.... because you violated your own rules about politics. A joke about data sharing could have taken any form. You chose a bad one.

btw you're doing it AGAIN by mentioning Cambridge Analytical.

hypocrital lemmings

I liked the year you did an April fools joke saying you would allow phones and tablets, then a couple of years you actually made it happen.

As Douglas Adams would say:"Don't Panic!"
