On the brink: U.S. and China
threaten tariffs as fears rise
Facebook
scandal affected
up to 87 million
By PAUL WISEMAN
AP Economics Writer
WASHINGTON — The
world’s two biggest econo-
mies stand at the edge of the
most perilous trade conflict
since World War II. Yet
there’s still time to pull back
from the brink.
Financial
markets
bounced up and down
Wednesday
over
the
brewing U.S.-China trade
war after Beijing and Wash-
ington proposed tariffs on
$50 billion worth of each
other’s products in a battle
over the aggressive tactics
China employs to develop
its high-tech industries.
“The risks of escalation
are clear,” Adam Slater,
global economist at Oxford
Economics, wrote in a
research note. “Threats to
the U.S.-China relationship
are the most dangerous for
global growth.”
There’s time for the two
countries to resolve the
dispute through negotiations
in the coming weeks. The
United States will not tax
1,300 Chinese imports —

throwers — until it has spent

NEW YORK — Facebook revealed
Wednesday that tens of millions more people
might have been exposed in the Cambridge
Analytica privacy scandal than previously
thought and said it will restrict the user data
that outsiders can access.
Those developments came as congressional
officials said CEO Mark Zuckerberg will
testify next week, while Facebook unveiled
a new privacy policy that aims to explain the
data it gathers on users more clearly — but
doesn’t actually change what it collects and
shares.
In a call with reporters Wednesday, Zucker-
berg acknowledged he made a “huge mistake”
in failing to take a broad enough view of what
Facebook’s responsibility is in the world. He
said it isn’t enough for Facebook to believe
app developers when they say they follow the
rules. He says Facebook has to ensure they do.
Facebook is facing its worst privacy scandal
in years following allegations that Cambridge
Analytica, a Trump-affiliated data mining firm,
used ill-gotten data from millions of users
through an app to try to influence elections.
Facebook said Wednesday that as many as
87 million people might have had their data
accessed — an increase from the 50 million
disclosed in published reports. Facebook is
basing the estimate in part on the number of
friends each user might have had. Cambridge
Analytica said in a statement that it had data
for only 30 million people.
On Monday all Facebook users will receive
a notice on their Facebook feeds with a link to
see what apps they use and what information
they have shared with those apps. They’ll have
a chance to delete apps they no longer want.
Users who might have had their data shared
with Cambridge Analytica will be told of that.
Facebook says most of the affected users are
in the U.S.

issues at the State Council Information Office in Bei-
jing, Wednesday.
weeks collecting public
comments. It’s likely to get
an earful from American
farmers and businesses that
want to avoid a trade war at
all costs.
Also, China did not
say when it would impose
tariffs on 106 U.S. prod-
ucts, including soybeans
and small aircraft, and it
announced it is challenging
America’s import duties at
the World Trade Organiza-
tion.
Lawrence Kudlow, the
top White House economic
adviser, sought to ease
fears of a deepening trade
conflict with China, telling
reporters that the tariffs the
U.S. announced Tuesday are
“potentially” just a negoti-
ating ploy.
“We’re very lucky that
we have the best negotiator
at the table in the president,
and we’re going to go
through that process,” said
White House press secretary
Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
“It will be a couple months
before tariffs on either side
would go into effect and
be implemented, and we’re
hopeful that China will do
the right thing.”
The prospect of a nego-
tiated end to the dispute
calmed nerves on Wall
Street. After plunging in
early trading, the Dow Jones
industrial average ended up
rising 231 points, or nearly 1
percent, to 24,264.
The sanctions standoff
started last month when
the United States slapped
tariffs on imported steel
and
aluminum.
On
Monday, China countered
by announcing tariffs on
$3 billion worth of U.S.
products. The next day,
the United States proposed
the $50 billion in duties
on Chinese imports, and
Beijing lashed back within
hours with a threat of further
tariffs of its own.
Things could easily esca-
late. The U.S. Treasury is
working on plans to restrict
Chinese technology invest-
ments in the United States.
And there’s talk that the U.S.
could also put limits on visas
for Chinese who want to
visit or study in this country.
Mueller says Trump not criminal target currently
By CHAD DAY
Associated Press
WASHINGTON
—
Special counsel Robert Muel-
ler’s team of prosecutors has
informed President Donald
Trump’s attorneys that the
president is not currently
considered a criminal target
in the Russia investigation,
according to a person familiar
with the conversation.
The person, who was not
authorized to speak publicly
about private conversations

the Global Entrepre-
neur Summit at Stan-
ford University in June
2016 in Stanford, Calif.

and spoke on condition of
anonymity, told The Associ-
ated Press on Wednesday that
the president is considered a
subject of Mueller’s probe
— not a target. A subject is
typically someone whose
conduct is of interest to
investigators but prosecutors
are not certain they’ve
gathered enough evidence to
bring charges.
The designation could
change at any time, though.
The development was first
reported Tuesday by The
Washington Post.
Trump’s designation as a
subject came up as prosecu-
tors and the president’s legal
team negotiate the terms of
an interview with him. The
president has said he wants
to speak with Mueller’s
team, but his lawyers have
not publicly committed to
allowing him to be ques-
tioned.
On Wednesday, White
House press secretary Sarah
Huckabee Sanders declined
to say whether the presi-
dent remains willing to be
questioned. In response to a
question about the president
being a subject, not a target,
of the investigation, Sanders
reiterated the president’s
claim that his campaign
didn’t collude with Russia
during the 2016 presidential
campaign.
“We know what we did
and what we didn’t do, so
none of this comes as much
of a surprise,” Sanders said.
She referred further ques-
tions to Trump’s attorneys.
