            So they can spy unrecognized with their encrypted chip.

              Maybe server SoC? Or more likely processor for the next gen VR headset?

                                  ASIC-s will run neural network for AI and Soc-s will be most likely used in smart devices sold to facebook customers. It might be AR Headset (remember, in 2019 we shall expect at least on such device, from Apple) or something from IoT world.

                                      If people still use FB after all the recent events then either they are insane or have no life.

                                        Will it show ads and steal data?
