One thing I find interesting about this is the very cautious wording of the
message you get in the "good" case.

'As a result, it doesn't appear your Facebook information was shared with
Cambridge Analytica _by "This is Your Digital Life"_.'

They don't say your information wasn't shared with Cambridge Analytica. They
don't even say your information "doesn't appear" to have been shared with
Cambridge Analytica. They say it doesn't appear to have been shared _by this
particular route_.

Mere caution on general principles? Or do they know or suspect that there may
be other means by which Facebook users' data have been shared with Cambridge
Analytica?
