The Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee is pressing Google to explain its data privacy practices in the wake of revelations that user data was hacked from its now defunct social media platform, Google Plus.
Sen. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) sent a letter to Google CEO Sundar Pichai on Friday asking him to explain how the breach may have affected users and why it took Google so long to discover and then disclose the breach.
Grassley also tore into Google for being hypocritical about its security practices during Facebook’s Cambridge Analytica scandal.
