Facebook has announced suspending over 200 apps in its ongoing internal review into apps that may have misused user data similar to Cambridge Analytica. This first stage of review may have resulted in the suspension of hundreds of apps but that doesn’t mean if all of them actually engaged in data misuse.

“The apps were suspended pending a thorough investigation into whether they misused any data, said Ime Archibong, Facebook’s vice president of product partnerships,” Reuters reported this morning. “Facebook said it has looked into thousands of apps till date as part of an investigation that Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg announced on March 21.”
