"[...] also filtered easily accessible personal information, such as age, income, address, religion, or possession of firearms, from the Internet and matched it with purchased data from banks, credit card companies, and other social media giants, Google and Twitter.

[...]"Steve Bannon's psychological warfare mind**** tool."
