Um, my managing director was downtown San Diego, two o'clock in the afternoon on a Saturday with her very, very handsome husband, who I was always jealous of. And a man came out of the crowd, pulled a knife, slit her husband's face from the ear all the way down to the mouth, all the way through.

Our team is the only research group in the world that has now for more than a dozen years been looking at new forms of manipulation that the internet has made possible.

We're the only group that's done this to see the real content that these companies are sending to registered voters, to children, and to teens. We've now preserved more than 120 million of what Google calls ephemeral experiences. And by the way, I'm not making any of this stuff up. And I will give you a quick example.
