Dang, educate yourself on Facebook’s effect in Myanmar.

- dang 6y agoI don't think that about HN, or anything close to that. Please follow the site guidelines when commenting here.

But considering this context, it is relevant not merely a “political” battle. https://foreignpolicy.com/2019/06/21/facebook-keeps-failing-in-myanmar-zuckerberg-arakan-army-rakhine/ https://foreignpolicy.com/2019/06/21/facebook-keeps-failing-... https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin%27s_law https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin%27s_law
