After the Cambridge Analytica scandal broke, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg was questioned by the US Congress for ten hours over the course of two days. Zuckerburg danced around most of the questions without making any damning confessions – which got the YouTube channel Bad Lip Reading into the act.
As is its speciality, the channel changed the soundtrack by dubbing over Zuckerburg’s voice. The outcome was the video above, where Zuckerberg is heard interrupting the session to ask his mother for Frodo’s ring, and a Congressman suddenly says, “Listen kid, blink if you’re not a lamp”.
It’s certainly much funnier than the original testimony, and has about the same level of useful information.
