On Sunday, some of Facebook’s research into people’s emotional states while using the platform made it to the public. It’s extremely creepy, and once again the company is apologizing for what it always does but doesn’t want users to think about.A 23-page internal Facebook document from 2017, prepared for a major Australian bank and reported on by The Australian, allegedly detailed Facebook’s large user base of high schoolers and young people. Moreover, it allegedly described how Facebook can work out when kids are feeling ”worthless” or otherwise down about themselves. This is concerning, because it opens the possibility of advertisers leveraging Facebook’s massive trove of user data to prey on people’s emotional insecurities.
