Facebook is continuing the process of digging out from beneath the rubble of the Cambridge Analytica scandal by crowdsourcing the process of identifying apps that don’t handle the data they collect correctly.

The company’s new Data Abuse Bounty is designed to help Facebook officials find and remove apps on the platform that are collecting information from users and then selling or transferring it to other people or groups. Specifically, the program offers rewards for people who can provide proof of apps that are using Facebook’s platform to collect information for the purpose of passing it to a third party, which then abuses it.

“This program will reward people with first-hand knowledge and proof of cases where a Facebook platform app collects and transfers people’s data to another party to be sold, stolen or used for scams or political influence. Just like the bug bounty program, we will reward based on the impact of each report. While there is no maximum, high impact bug reports have garnered as much as $40,000 for people who bring them to our attention,” Collin Greene, head of product security at Facebook, said in a post announcing the new program.

“We’ll review all legitimate reports and respond as quickly as possible when we identify a credible threat to people’s information. If we confirm data abuse, we will shut down the offending app and take legal action against the company selling or buying the data, if necessary. We’ll pay the person who reported the issue, and we’ll also alert those we believe to be affected.”

The Data Abuse Bounty is part of Facebook’s reaction to the Cambridge Analytica scandal, a situation that would have fit the company’s definition of data abuse quite well. In that case, one company collected the data and then transferred it to a third party, which then used it for political influence. The announcement of the new bounty program came on the same day that Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg testified in front of a joint session of the Senate Judiciary and Senate Commerce, Science, and Transportation committees about the Cambridge Analytica situation. The lawmakers questioned Zuckerberg for several hours about Facebook’s privacy policies, security practices, and data collection activities. Zuckerberg said several times that Facebook would do better and be make it easier for users to understand what data is being collected and how the company and others will use it.
