Somebody's already linked China's credit score shenanigans which is a good example; I'll also chime in by saying there's been actual books written how IBM (and big data of that time) was a direct factor in making the Holocaust happen (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_and_the_Holocaust). Once when "undesirables" (like myself) can be sorted by any widespread metric ... it's too easy to be used as a weapon for more nefarious means.

This has nothing to do with FB. The government has that data from ISPs already.

Clearly it will be eaaier to figure out who are undesired individuals if one has access to everyones Facebook feed.
