Facebook's Political Ad Archive and Web Scraping to Improve It, with Sren Pedersen

Published: Sept. 16, 2018, 7 a.m.

S\xf8ren Pedersen, a Danish software developer working for Extra Bladet, joins the podcast to discuss his project uspolads.com. S\xf8ren used web scraping technology to build a website that presents data from the Facebook political ad archive ahead of the 2018 US midterm elections. We talk about S\xf8ren's motivations in building uspolads, as well as discuss some his previous work using Facebook and Twitter data to reveal insights about politics and tech addiction.
