Facebook has CIA related people on its board.

That's true. At least in the beginning, there were some people near the CIA on the board and some of the early investment funding came from entities close to the CIA.

However, that's a very old story, I doubt that there is much of a connection now.

While it's quite plausible CIA has penetrated Facebook, the interference is very unlikely coming in through the board meetings.

Poster is probably referring to Peter Thiel who's company Palantir was funded through CIA contracts.
