Interesting article. I had always assumed that Luckey was forced to resign because of his “NimbleRichMan” charade, a subterfuge so cringey and shady that it was r/the_donald’s own version of the Digg revolt [0], which to me would be grounds for firing because of all the FEC problems it could get him and Facebook into. And then he lied about not being NimbleRichMan [1], which would seem to seal the deal for firing. But the WSJ article says FB’s investigation afterward that Luckey did not violate any internal policies. It still makes more sense to me that they fired Luckey for being a reckless liability. But they had the chance to say so and apparently didn’t.
