[governance] FW: [governace] Facebook spent $4 million to lobby U.S. lawmakers in 2012

[michael gurstein]

For a great deal of info on what sectors, companies, industries, etc spend
on advocacy/lobbying in the US, see
http://www.opensecrets.org/lobby/index.php.

 

Facebook of course is peanuts, but remember they are just getting started
and at this point they are just getting themselves known around town. the
issues where lobbying will pay off don't seem to have yet really started to
emerge for FB, but I would guess to them it's a bit of setting up a
"profile. and getting a few "likes. :)
