To me, it was more of a publicity stunt to avoid government regulation around the world. Zuckerberg can say it's a "metaverse" company now, not social media. It just so happens that he's also enamored with VR/AR.
- PaulHoule 4y agoFor a while I refused to use the new name because I thought it was a lame attempt to change the subject on their problems. In the last few weeks I call it Meta all the time because with a stock chart like https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/META/chart?p=META https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/META/chart?p=META calling it "Meta" is the greatest humiliation I can inflict on them. It steams me that META is a big part of the S&P 500 index so I can't help holding it in my index funds. I wonder if we can get a shareholder lawsuit to stop Zuckerberg from setting the controls to the heart of the sun.
