There once was a day, long ago in the before time, when the leadership at Google was held to a higher ethical standard than Mark Zuckerberg.

- fossuser 5y agoThey're in the same business - not sure why you'd expect them to have different incentives. Both are trying to do things at massive scale and dealing with the problems associated with that. I think both do things I don't agree with, but are generally unfairly vilified most of the time by their failing competition (the press mostly) and weirdly some of their employees. The sense I get from this is it's mostly political tribalism (affects both far left and far right with different grievances for each). I don't personally like the ad-driven model, so with the exception of YouTube I avoid their products where possible.
- CRConrad 5y agoWell, a large part of the difference in how they are treated is probably down to how Facebook didn't spend their first decade or so claiming to live by a motto like "Don't be evil".
