Yes, they published the paper and publicly bragged about how successful they were in making hundreds of thousands of people feel sad. https://www.pnas.org/content/pnas/111/24/8788.full.pdf https://www.pnas.org/content/pnas/111/24/8788.full.pdf Edit: And it is in their public defense of this paper that they think we all gave 'informed consent' to this kind of psychological manipulation when we signed up for Facebook because it's in the TOS. They literally define 'informed consent' as the legal text in their TOS. I mean that's insane, they know their users don't read that before signing up. It's not f'ing informed or consent ugh this makes me so mad. Also what kind of sick company puts into their TOS that they can emotionally manipulate you on purpose whenever they want? Fucked up.
