Facebook said in the 2018 presentation that its intention was to"review the developers who created the most apps as potentially raising increased risk." It suggested there were roughly 245,000 developers — including 87,000 in China, 42,000 in Russia, 76,000 in Vietnam, and some in North Korea, Cuba, and Iran — who could have accessed Facebook user data until interfaces were changed in 2014.
Warner and Rubio said the investigation was"especially remarkable given that Facebook has never been permitted to operate in" China.
