He ignored the UK Government's request for him to attend a cross-party Parliamentary Select Committee inquiry in the wake of the revelation of Cambridge Analytica's use of Facebook data.
I can't decide if he was being contemptuous, arrogant or just cowardly. Or any thereof. No-one was saying he would face criminal charges, as it is not a legal investigation; but these Select Committees are civilised but tough when necessary, often with questions asked by MPs with particular knowledge of the general field of enquiry. The proceedings are open to journalists, too.
BTW, No I don't use Facebook. I do not need it anyway, and its real purpose - data-harvesting - has never been a secret.
