Summary
A former Facebook executive, Wynn-Williams, exposes the company’s toxic culture in her new book Careless People.
She alleges Mark Zuckerberg “lied” to Congress about Facebook’s China dealings and describes COO Sheryl Sandberg as manipulative, detailing an uncomfortable incident where Sandberg repeatedly invited her to bed on a private jet.
She also accuses Facebook of enabling election misinformation and failing to curb hate speech in Myanmar.
The whistleblower portrays Facebook as “an autocracy of one” where Zuckerberg makes decisions that align with business interests rather than ethical considerations.
Noooo waaay
Can that even happen in a capitalist society? I thought the pursuit of profit was supposed to fix everything. It almost feels like thefacebook doesn’t have its users’, or even society’s, best interests at heart. If only someone could have made a full length feature film warning everyone about this 15 years ago!
