Abstract
The application of information technologies in the 2016 U.S. President election campaign had a special character. The range of relevant applications went far beyond the traditional areas typical for the 2008 campaign. For the purposes of its election strategy each party ensured the support of powerful IT-corporations (Google - by HillaryClinton, Facebook - byD. Trump) and applied different technologies: Google - its own search mechanism (SEME); Facebook - the identification of subliminal political preferences at the level of the users of its social network. The study explains the effective victory of D. Trump and at the same time reveals a qualitatively new information security problems.
