Facebook fined a paltry £500,000 (8 minutes' revenue) over Cambridge Analytica scandal

Facebook will be fined £500,000 – the maximum amount possible – for two breaches of the UK’s Data Protection Act 1998 in connection with the Cambridge Analytica scandal.

But under new European legislation, the fine could have been as high as £1.2 billion.
