Facebook has been working on its first smart display product for a while now but had to halt development due to the Cambridge Analytica scandal. But in the wake of the affair, the company was forced to make some adjustments to the initial design like adding a privacy shutter to the front camera.

Facebook has already shown off the product to several major retails, so it appears the stage is set for the big announcement.
