Following the Cambridge Analytica scandal which caused a massive data breach leading to data of about 87 million people, mostly in the US getting improperly shared with London-based political consulting firm, Cambridge Analytica.
Seeking another chance to lead the company, Facebook chief Mark Zuckerberg on Wednesday said that he remains the best person to lead the social network despite the scandal.
Speaking to the reporters on a conference call, he acknowledged the company’s mistakes in sharing its users' information with a third-party and took the blame for the massive data breach.
Zuckerberg, who co-founded Facebook in 2004, said he is unaware of the board asking him to step down in the wake of the scandal.
Mentioning that the scandal has not caused any meaningful impact into its business, he said that they have a lot of work to do to repair the massive breach of trust adding that it will take years for Facebook to fix the problem.
Zuckerberg assured of making progress against the adversaries but added that they can't expect to fully solve such a problem.
The Facebook chief is scheduled to testify before a Congressional committee on data breach next week.
