I wish more people understood this. Were there bad people at FB while I was there? Yes. Did bad things happen? Also yes. On the other hand, I also saw good people and good things. I saw massive and frankly very disruptive efforts around privacy and data retention. I saw people fired for violating very stringent rules about handling of user data. I saw a quite-large company's worth of people and resources devoted to detecting harmful or inauthentic content. I couldn't see the content itself (see previous about rules) but from where I sat in the storage org I could see the names of the processing pipelines and know their scope. Maybe those aren't enough to outweigh the negatives, but to ignore the very existence of those people and those efforts does not IMO make for responsible or useful commentary.
