Earlier this week, Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg said her company was on the hunt for the next data analysis firm that was violating its policies. Now, it may have been found.

Three weeks after Facebook banned Cambridge Analytica, a UK-based political data analysis firm the social network said improperly received as many as 87 million user profiles leaked from its service, Facebook has made a second high-profile move. This time, the target was AggregateIQ, a Canadian advertising and analysis firm that whistleblower Christopher Wylie from Cambridge Analytica said was linked to the same parent company, called SCL.
