Honestly, the offshore data and micro targeting are less interesting than the flex they just made. They showed that they can just blast the entire user base with a single message that can mobilize people and freak out law makers. That wasn’t sophisticated at all.

Yeah, they should have just donated to the political campaigns for people in congress like every other lobbying group. Then it would have been fine and dandy. Rookie mistake.
