Facebook: Power, Lies, and Apathy
2025-04-24
Sarah Wynn-Williams's tell-all memoir, *Careless People*, exposes the shocking inner workings of Facebook. The book details the arrogance, incompetence, and unethical behavior of executives like Zuckerberg, Sandberg, and Kaplan, and how Facebook used its power to manipulate politics, suppress dissent, and even played a role in the Myanmar genocide. Wynn-Williams's firsthand account chronicles Facebook's evolution from rapid growth to unchecked power, culminating in a disregard for ethics and consequences. The author argues this wasn't solely due to individual flaws but also a failure of the policy environment.
