Earlier Facebook was slammed over data breach during  Donald Trump's presidential campaign. This scandal is linked to a British firm Cambridge Analytica.

In a conference, Mark Zuckerberg said, "In the US Senate Alabama special election last year, we successfully deployed some new artificial intelligence (AI) tools that removed Macedonian trolls who were trying to spread information during the election. We now have about 15,000 people working on security and content review and we'll have more than 20,000 by the end of this year."
