My colleague from Estonia asked about political advertising. Twitter has announced that it is not going to allow any political advertising anymore. Mr. Zuckerberg has stated, however, that Facebook has no intention of implementing such a ban. Following on from that, how much revenue did Facebook earn in political advertising during the last presidential election in the United States and how much does it expect to generate in next year's presidential election?
