act when it comes to users' personal details. But some of the controls

Cambridge Analytica's name has already been taken down from the wall of the London office it occupied

Cambridge Analytica, the political consultancy at the centre of the Facebook data-sharing
scandal, is shutting down.The firm was accused of improperly obtaining personal information
on behalf of political clients.According to Facebook, data about up to 87 million of its members
was harvested by an app and then passed onto the political consultancy.

The social network said its own probe into the matter would continue.

"This doesn't change our commitment and determination to understand exactly what happened
and make sure it doesn't happen again," said a spokesman.

"We are continuing with our investigation in cooperation with the relevant authorities."

Clarence Mitchell, a spokesman for Cambridge Analytica, referred the BBC to a statement on the
firm's website."Over the past several months, Cambridge Analytica has been the subject of
numerous unfounded accusations and, despite the company's efforts to correct the record, has
been vilified for activities that are not only legal, but also widely accepted as a standard component
of online advertising in both the political and commercial arenas," it said.

"Despite Cambridge Analytica's unwavering confidence that its employees have acted ethically and
lawfully... the siege of media coverage has driven away virtually all of the company's customers
and suppliers. "As a result, it has been determined that it is no longer viable to continue operating
the business."
