Wonder if Cambridge Analytica used subliminal messaging

They brag about their ads and messaging being untraceable; how those ads are micro-targeted to the psychology of individual users; how ads and messaging disappear after view.

From the Channel 4 videos, they are clearly not above breaking the law through data theft, manipulation, extortion, blackmail, who knows what. They were founded for the purpose of Psych-Ops for intelligence agencies, surely they are not above specific subliminal messaging to their targets.

Just wondering out loud.
