During that period, much fanfare was made around Victoria-local Cambridge Analytica offshoot "Aggregate IQ" due to their Brexit involvement in the vote leave campaigns.

With further scandals emerging after the US election via Cambridge Analytica's involvement in first the Ted Cruise campaign then ultimately Donald Trump's campaign; and that's not even touching the long and sordid history of SCL Group, their parent corporation, I would argue the company warrants open discussion.

I'm hoping this thread can be a space for us to discuss this controversial international political machine that still calls Victoria home.
