A Facebook spokesperson said the company received the invite, but declined to discuss whether Zuckerberg would attend. Spokespeople for Grassley's office and the Judiciary committee didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.

Zuckerberg, meanwhile, shifted from days of deafening silence last week to a full-on media blitz, complete with interviews with national and industry publications, television appearances and full-page newspaper ads.

At first he thought he could just ignore it, but now realized that things could get out of hand. There's nothing to expect from that Congress hearing though; he'll just wiggle around, blame Cambridge Analytica and promise to do better. Doing better would reduce revenue, so it won't happen.
