Facebook acknowledged Tuesday it was facing multiple inquiries from US and British regulators about the major Cambridge Analytica user data scandal.
The leading social network offered no details but its admission confirmed reports of a widening investigation into the misuse of private data by Facebook and its partners.
"We are cooperating with officials in the US, UK and beyond," a Facebook spokesman said in response to an AFP query. "We've provided public testimony, answered questions, and pledged to continue our assistance as their work continues."
