Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg gave several “exclusive” interviews on Wednesday after three days in hiding – capped off with a wholly unsatisfying appearance on CNN in which the flop-sweating executive appeared rattled as he robotically bunted softballs in the wake of a massive data harvesting scandal. (Zuck wasn’t even asked about that $357 million of Facebook stock he’s unloaded as part of a $12 billion unwind!)

“This was a major breach of trust, and I’m really sorry that this happened,” Zuckerberg told CNN senior tech correspondent Laurie Segall – referring to the Cambridge Analytica data breach and ensuing discovery that tons of companies are appparently harvesting and selling user data. Notably absent was an explanation for revelations that Facebook was directly involved in helping the Clinton and Obama campaigns.

Zuck said the company will be deploying a “multi-part plan” to limit developers’ access to user data, and said it would be auditing developers with access to large stores of user data – as well as investigating “thousands” of apps to determine whether they have abused their access to data.

More highlights from Zuckerberg’s various Wednesday interviews (scroll down for twitter reactions):

Facebook will notify “anyone whose data might have been affected” by the Cambridge Analytica data breach (including how ad companies track users?)
