Facebook has yet again vowed to "do better" after it was caught secretly bypassing Apple's privacy rules to pay adults and teenagers to install a data-slurping iOS app on their phones.

The increasingly worthless promises of the social media giant have fallen on deaf ears however: on Wednesday, Apple revoked the company's enterprise certificate for its internal non-public apps, and one lawmaker vowed to reintroduce legislation that would make it illegal for Facebook to carry out such "research" in future.
