Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg testifies before a House Energy and Commerce hearing on Capitol Hill in Washington, Wednesday, April 11, 2018, about the use of Facebook data to target American voters in the 2016 election and data privacy. Yet the hearings in Washington managed to showcase the normally press-shy Zuckerberg's ability to perform as an able and well-rehearsed, if a bit stiff, CEO of one of the world's biggest companies and the degree to which much of Congress appears befuddled about technology and the relevant issues.

Michael Burgess, R-Texas, of Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg at a House Energy and Commerce hearing on Capitol Hill in Washington, Wednesday, April 11, 2018, about the use of Facebook data to target American voters in the 2016 election and data privacy. "For the most part, so far, this has been a victory for Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg and enormous validation that D.C. is ineffectual," said Scott Galloway, who teaches marketing at New York University.

The hearings were a major test for Zuckerberg.

Some members of Congress hold computer science degrees or other technical knowledge and were well-versed in the issues, drilling Zuckerberg about how Facebook tracks people who are not on the site and what changes the social media will make to protect user data.

Others focused on concerns like censorship and perceived bias on the site as well as children's privacy policies. But many appeared out of touch on the fundamentals of how Facebook works and lobbed mainly softball questions. AP Photo/Andrew Harnik
